This movie has a terrific blend of humour, plot twists & suspense, action and great dialogue... In my opinion, if you substituted a murder victim for the 'kidnapping' victim, it has many of the classic elements from a Dame Agatha Christie mystery. Christopher Walken, my favourite actor, once again stole the show... even spending most of the movie duct taped to a chair... due to his intense facial expressions and vocal inflection... from dripping menace to subtle, black humour... he's definitely the Master of Acting and it SHOWS in Suicide Kings! The other notable acting kudo goes to Dennis Leary, who with a steady line of profane wisecracks and one fairly intense dramatic monologue, kept up the rest of the film. All in all, a good movie to watch... i'm VERY glad i bought the DVD... But personally, i would have liked to *see* the alternate endings without the director blabbing all over the top of them...
