The review of this Movie prepared by Jack Bauer
Not just a romantic caper film, "The Mexican" concerns a young couple that just can't get along because he's in thrall to a crime boss who sends him to Mexico to fetch a valuable, historic pistol with a supposed curse on it, and she wants him out of that business. She breaks up with him and heads to Vegas but is taken hostage by a killer whose bosses want to make sure her boyfriend completes his mission. Meanwhile, Pitt has a terrible time locating and holding onto the gun. There's quite a bit of violence as well as laughs, and the movie's a bit exhaustingly long for its genre, but it's got a great soundtrack, some astounding plot twists, and James Gandolfini is surprisingly moving and funny as Roberts' killer-captor.
