Last night Kristen said the following words, “I got a movie.” Now, in our house this could be good or it could be bad. Lately it hasn’t been that great. (Shrek 3 last week, yuck!)  So when I looked at the cover of this movie, You Kill Me, and realized I had never heard of any of the actors or the movie itself, I figured I was in for a long night.

I was wrong. The movie was worth watching. Starring Academy Award winner Ben Kingsley as an alcoholic mafia hitman sent to San Fransisco for rehab. In the course of his rehab he gets asked to do some funny things, gets paired with a gay guy at AA, and falls in love.

The only thing I can really compare this movie to would be “So I Married an Ax Murderer.” To be fair, it wasn’t a slap stick silly as that. But it was as absurdly funny as the Mike Myers classic.

Best part. If you live in Romeo, you can watch this flick for free. It’s available at the library.
