thursday be a good movie but we recognize too much from other movie in it genre and therefor it lack originality . if you have see goodfellas and reservoir dog and pulp fiction and a bunch of other movie that be inspire by that last one you have see almost every part from thursday . there be a scene that involve torture that have even the same dialogue a in tarantino reservoir dog . still and it be a good movie . because not every part be take from the same movie the complete thing have some new idea and some nice touch . the opening sequence to begin with and be quite impressive . we meet nick ( aaron eckhart ) and dallas ( paulina porizkova ) and billy hill ( james le gros ) . they get into a fight with a clerk in a gas station over a cup of coffee and it end with the death of that clerk and the arrival of a cop . we have already glimpse at a suitcase with a lot of money in it . then we meet casey ( thomas jane ) in houston . he be marry to christine ( paula marshall ) but use to be work with nick . she doesn not know a thing . then nick give him a call and say that he be come . we learn that he have screw his friend over and the problem be about to start . what happen exactly be not for me to reveal but we meet some other character and all interested in the money or the drug nick also have with him . casey have flush those down the drain . very funny moment and a lot of blood and a very funny sub plot involve actor michael jeter and some surprise ( although if you really think about it you see them come ) this be a good movie with some very fine performance and nicely direct by skip wood .
