\"Seven<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

In this late-2012 film, Colin Farrell stars as Marty, a struggling writer working on a screenplay called Seven Psychopaths. As he struggles to make progress, his best friend Billy (Sam Rockwell) begs to work with him on the script. Together they assemble a cast of seven sociopaths, one who is based on a real-life serial killer who leaves behind a jack of diamonds card with each body. As they navigate a landscape of crazed madmen while completing the script, they encounter a coke-headed mafia boss Woody Harrelson and an eccentric, dog-stealing Christopher Walken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I was that this was starring Colin Farrell my first thought was “oh shit” – I’m still trying to forget 2012’s Total Recall<\/em>. He’s surrounded by such a phenomenal cast in this film though, that his character being lame doesn’t greatly detract from the overall movie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The character who really steals the show isn’t Walken or Harrelson, but sidekick Sam Rockwell. He starred in Moon<\/em> a few years ago but I didn’t recognize him from anything when watching this – I won’t forget him now, though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This movie is filled with great quotes and passages by quirky, flamboyant, memorable characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
