You hear about mythology throughout your life, and yet most movies that touch on it end up ruining their themes by overdoing them. The bad guy is really bad, and the hero always has quick one liners. Like the mummy type of stuff. Well, The Limey pushes all of those movies aside and shows them how to do it. It uses experienced and aging actors like Peter Fonda, Leslie Ann Warren, and Terrence Stamp and they all represent experienced people in the real world. One is a record producer who lived in the sixties and made his fortune there. Another is a vengeful father who spent his life in prison and has now gotten out. These guys take what they are doing seriously. No corny one liners, but real moments of excitement and feeling. It doesn't hurt that it's directed by the great Steven Soderbergh (Another great one is Out of Sight, and still another is Sex, Lies, and Video Tape). This movie has everything going for it. Great acting, writing, and filmimg. Even the use of music is right on target.
