This film is very close to perfect.
Both Mark Walhberg and Burt Reynolds give absolutely phenomenal performances but no one in the cast is even close to lacking. Lessar roles do exactly what they should: add subtlety and richness. Every role, even minor ones, seem to be filled flawlessly.
The cinematography of this film is incredibly tight. It is never obnoxious or overstated but is nonetheless fresh and unbelievably effective.
The use of pop culture is seamless. While occasionally humorous, again it's never overstated. At no point is the film shoving its timeframe down your throat.
This film entertains on multiple levels. On the crust it's a pop culture explosion. But there's a lot of subtlety, emotion and meaning inside.
Watch for excellent camera work, superb music selection and Burt Reynold's subtle quirks and gestures.
Phenomenal.
