Review:

This is a war movie. The cast and crew declare war on one of the worst scripts ever to get produced by a major Hollywood company and lose. But boy! What an effort!! What a battle these guys put up!

Ben Affleck is Larry Gigli: cutsie hit man. He’s ordered by his employer Louis(Lenny Venito) to kidnap mentally disturbed Brian(Justin Bartha), who’s the brother of a District Attorney who’s hot on the trail of a character played by Al Pacino. But Louis doesn’t trust Larry and sends another killer namedRicki(Jennifer Lopez) the white hot lesbian. Gigli cures her of her affliction, and everyone except Louis live happily ever after.

This film has some really good performances. J-Lo and Affleck give better than average performances, Pacino, Christopher Walken and Lainie Kazan, as our hero’s mother, all manage to chew the scenery into a greenish powder, and have a great time doing it. But the film is stupid, pedantic and boring. But it does have it’s moments.

This film isn’t bad enough to be a must see and isn’t good enough to be one either.
