The Whole Nine Yards (2000)

★★★☆☆

Oz is a very kind moralistic suburban dentist living in Canada, while his wife, Sophie, is real pain. A new neighbor moves in next door and Oz discovers that it’s Jimmy ‘The Tulip’ Tudeski, a mob hitman exiled to Canada. After Oz realizes that his family needs money, his wife convinces him to go to Chicago to turn in Jimmy to mob boss Janni Gogolak and claim the bounty money. Little does he know that everything falls apart and now he is trapped in the middle between his wife and a mob war. I enjoyed this movie, I think it had a great cast, some quirky performances and a story that was very engaging. The only problem is, for a movie about the mob it seems a tad slow and not too eventful.
