The Hustler was fantastic. The story well developed, the acting excellent, the characters were spot on...
In Color, Eddie Felson was still Eddie Felson, I wasn't dissapointed with that aspect. Tom Cruise's character was entertaining, the scene in Chalky's where he takes the Balabooshka (sp?) stick and is knockin' Mozell (sp?) out in 9 ball to Werewolves of London is goddamn fantastic.
The story does lack a but, as compared to the Hustler... but still an interesting endeavour non the less. I felt it could've gone a little further than the ending took it, but the ending did put a smile on my face.
"And if I don't getchya then, I'll getchya next month in N'orleans."
"Yeah, what makes you so sure?"
He breaks like a sledgehammer. "I'm back."
