    Dares you to laugh, pulls you by the collar, and then spirals you into a world of unknown pleasures.

    A dumb-ass crime comedy, but with sizzling one-liners. Amanda Peet as Jill is refreshingly bubbly in a perverse sort of way. But should we pretend contract killers are this likable for entertainment's sake. Oh, the hilarity, the hilarity.

    This is a comedy that´s not funny, enjoyable or, at least, entertaining. That´s the reason why, "The Whole Nine Yards" is just a movie that tries to copy all the forced cliches of the Mob genre. If that´s the intention of director Lynn (to make a farce or a parody of the genre), the result is mediocre. As a comedy, this movie sucks. Contains all the pathetic cliches of the mobsters comedy, and, worst of all, doesn´t provoke any laugh or any smile; all looks tired, forced, with the kind of Matthew Perry comedy (slapstick and a lot of stupidity) and a really annoying accent from Roxanna Arquette. "The Whole Nine Yards" worth just for the macabre humor (Amanda Peet steals the show), but as a whole is just a few inches.… Expand

    It is a great movie that I have now watched several times. I would recommend this movie to any of my friends any time. It will keep you watching with a twist aery corner.

    Stupid, empty and -- worst of all -- fantastically boring.

    It provides the first genuine laughs I've had at the movies in this young year.
