boring and trivial ... too bad since the cast was kinda ok
Silly entertainment!
'The Mexican' works as a comedy and works as an adventure road trip flick, so it evidently achieved what it set out to do. This 2001 release features a strong cast, as we get Brad Pitt and Julia Roberts together alongside James Gandolfini, J. K. Simmons and Gene Hackman. I enjoyed all five, especially the first three.
It's not a film to be taken overly serious, it's one to enjoy and I got a lot of enjoyment from it - credit to Gore Verbinski & Co. Recommended? Definitely!
I don't know why there isn't more love for this film. It has a great script with twists and turns and a good balance of humor. The acting is great in particular the chemistry between Roberts and Gandolfini. Its a really well crafted film, a highlight of Gore Verbinski.

Fun story, and Brad Pitt is always great, but really stood out to me is chemistry between James Gandolfini and Julia Roberts. I could watch a movie of just them two going on an adventure.
