MY MOVIE WISHLIST: STAND UP GUYS

What’s it about? “A pair of aging con men try to get the old gang back together for one last hurrah before one of the guys takes his last assignment — to kill his comrade.” —IMDB

Who made it? Director: Fisher Stevens. Writer: Noah Haidle.

Who’s in it? Al Pacino, Christopher Walken, Alan Arkin, Julianna Margulies.

When’s it coming out? December 14, 2012 (Limited Release).

Why do I want to see it?

  • Because I like the angle of old con men reuniting. I can’t remember if I’ve ever seen a film from this perspective.
  • Because it looks like most of the movie takes place over the course of one night, and I love that!
  • Because the trailer makes it seem like that movie will be fun and entertaining but also have heart.
  • Because I want to see the three leads (Pacino, Walken and Arkin) act together.
  • Because I’m curious if Fisher, The Plague, Stevens can direct. (Hack the planet!! [By the way, see the movie Hackers if you haven’t already.])

How much do I want to see it? (On a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being I have to see this  and 1 being Okay, I’ll see it) 3: I want to see this, and I’d pay to see it at the theater, but I won’t be sad if I have to wait for DVD.

Where’s the trailer already?
