Bruce Willis and Two Great Sets of Teeth
Added 5/23/2009

Amoral. Senseless. Some laughs. Two beautiful young woman who show great teeth in fairly numerous closeups. Two semi-nude shots of one of the women or her body stand in. A henpecked dentist to serve as the klutzy but basically heroic good guy. Assorted third bananas only one of whom makes sufficient screen impact to be noticed (Michael Clarke Duncan).
Oh, yes, there is Bruce Willis, the only reason for the picture. He performs his patented cool tough guy character with nonchalance. Mix the ingredients without too much directorial skill and you have a movie which entertained many.
Frankly, I liked looking at the girls.

Great cast, fun movie.
Added 12/30/2008

I have no idea how many times I have watched "The Whole Nine Yards". It remains one movie that I can watch over and over again, laughing each and every time I see it (yes often in the same places).

Matthew Perry is outstanding as steals the show as the awkward dentist Nicholas 'Oz' Oseransky. Amanda Peet is hilarious as Jill St. Claire, the wannabe side kick of contract killer Jimmie `The Tulip' Tudeski, played by Bruce Willis. I've always liked Michael Clark Duncan and he is great fun to watch as Franklin `Frankie Figs' Figueroa. Natasha Henstridge as Cynthia Tudeski is beautiful, as always. Kevin Pollock is great as Janni Pytor Gogalak. One draw back might be the fake French accent of Rosanna Arquette as Sophie Oseransky.

If you are looking for a comedy with some great plot twists, a little action, and maybe a contract assassination thrown in, then I highly recommend giving the movie a look. While the "The Whole Ten Yards" is good sequel to this movie, "The Whole Nine Yards" is the better of the two.

Problems at Amazon
Added 3/15/2008

I'm sorry to tell that, of the two dvds that I bought as described
below, one had no subtitles and the other couldn't be read cause of
region issues. I was allready worried about this possibility, and sent
attached to the request this comment, as you may observe in my order.
I buy at the Amazon since 1998 and never had any trouble. I think
that, as this is a worldwide store, it is important to pay attention to
the profile of the country you're sending your products, mainly regarding
electronics and midia.

Embarassing, amoral turkey of a film.
Added 1/22/2008

The film's message seems to be killing people is an acceptable "lifestyle choice". Saving people from a violent death is worthwhle only if you love them and they love you otherwise ... it's none of your business.

Even Bruce Willis couldn't save this turkey.

This film went straight from my DVD player to the trash can.
