Slevin tells The Boss he will kill The Fairy. Concurrently with Slevin visiting the mob bosses, it becomes apparent Goodkat is somehow involved in both sides and is responsible for Nick's debts being called in, and that he plans to kill Slevin after The Fairy dies and make it look like they both committed suicide.

Slevin and Lindsey go out to dinner, where Slevin arranges a date with The Fairy. Brikowski, who used to bet big with one of the murdered bookies, has also been informed that Goodkat is back in town for the first time in twenty years and think there's a connection between The Boss, The Rabbi, Goodkat, and Slevin.

The detective hassles him again later and Slevin reveals his full name. Slevin arrives for his date at The Fairy's apartment and fatally shoots him, only for Goodkat to appear.

Slevin then brings the bus terminal victim's body, revealed to be Nick Fisher, into the apartment while Goodkat kills The Fairy's bodyguards.

Together, they blow up the apartment and the bodies, faking Slevin's death in the process. Slevin appears and explains the overarching twist: Slevin is Henry, the son of the ill-fated Max, and the mobsters who killed Max were The Boss and The Rabbi.

Goodkat is revealed as the assassin hired to kill young Henry, who after an attack of conscience took him in and raised him instead. Slevin reveals after twenty years later, he and Goodkat killed the mobsters' bookies and stole the ledgers in the process.

After identifying Nick as owing a great deal of money to both sides, they killed him and stole his identity. Goodkat took the contract to kill The Fairy from The Boss and convinced The Rabbi he'd protect The Fairy on the condition they both call in Nick's debts, granting Slevin and Goodkat unhindered access to the heavily guarded mobsters as their ally, under his Nick Fisher alias.

After revealing his identity, Slevin suffocates The Rabbi and The Boss by taping plastic bags over their heads, killing them the same way they killed his father.

Since Lindsey earlier photographed Goodkat while investigating Nick's disappearance, Goodkat shoots her to protect his identity.

A brilliant film, That for most of it leaves you scratching your head and the plot feels like it could be a mistaken identity comedy film, But if you hang in there it's worth it as the plot unravels and it's full of great twists and turns and is very clever, All the cast were great I'm just surprised it didn't get more praise, It is one of them films where if you don't pay full attention it won't make sense as it's very detailed but it's great and definitely worth the watch.

Jamie C Super Reviewer. Feb 03, Lucky Number Slevin is a smart and thrilling noir crime drama. After falling victim to a case of mistaken identity, Slevin gets caught up in a rivalry between two competing New York crime lords.

The storytelling is also especially good, and does a brilliant job building intrigue and unfolding the mystery as to who Slevin is and why he's being sought after.

However, the dialog is a bit too clever for its own good and comes off as a bit rehearsed and artificial.

Lucky Number Slevin has some rough edges, but it's entertaining and has a compelling story that's full of mystery. Dann M Super Reviewer. Jul 24, The biggest thing I remember hearing about this film upon it's release was the mentioning of Ben Kingsley's Knighthood on the film poster.

This seemed to create quite a stir, as professional credits don't normally include this. Added to which, Slevin finds himself mistaken for his absent friend and soon involved in a lot of trouble with them both.

With the help of his friends neighbour Lindsey Lucy Liu , Slevin tries to clear up the confusion. I've always been a sucker for films that twist and tease, keeping you perplexed and forcing you to keep up to speed.

I like it when the script has actually been given some attention and one that demands the attention of the viewer. This is that type of film.

It keeps you guessing and is not without a dark and lightness of touch either. It helps when there's an impressive cast assembled also and each of the performers involved here deliver fine pieces of work.

Seeing old hands Freeman and Kingsley play off one another is a particular highlight. Ultimately, it's the convoluted nature of the story that impresses most though.

Screenwriter Jason Smilovic and director Paul McGuigan add substance and style to the proceedings and keep you at just the distance from the characters' motivations.

However, intricate and clever films also face the danger of becoming too loaded. For the most part, this film is a success but the denouement is a little muddled.

For a film of this type to work, it needs to have a pay-off and this does have a satisfactory one. The only problem is, it has one two many.

Without revealing too much, the fate of a prominent character seems like it's been tacked on and stinks of studio involvement, letting down an otherwise intricate and cleverly constructed film.

A satisfyingly convoluted crime yarn with an impressive and eclectic mix of actors. However, the unravelling is a major demerit. Well, that and Bruce Willis' ridiculous hairpieces.

Mark W Super Reviewer. See all Audience reviews. Slevin: They picked up the wrong guy. The Boss: Wrong guy for what? Slevin: Whatever it is you wanted to see me about.

The Boss: Do you know what I want to see you about? Slevin: No. The Boss: Then how do you know I have the wrong guy?

Schlomo: The first time someone calls you a horse you punch him on the nose, the second time someone calls you a horse you call him a jerk but the third time someone calls you a horse, well then perhaps it's time to go shopping for a saddle.

Lindsey: What happened to your nose? Slevin: I was using it to break some guy's fist. Goodkat: A Kansas City Shuffle is when everybody looks right, you go left.

Es lief nicht nach dem Plan des Kunden. Die Handlung ist sehr interessant, wird dann aber noch dynamischer und verdrehter.

Tatsache ist, dass Slevin kein zufälliger Spielstein im Spiel ist, sondern ein solcher Puppenspieler.

Der Mörder hatte Mitleid mit dem Jungen. Der Junge wurde erwachsen und beschloss, sich an den Mördern seines Vaters und seiner Mutter zu rächen.

All diese komplexe Kombination war als Rache gedacht. Er galt als Verlierer, der leicht zu manipulieren war, während Slevin alle ihre Bewegungen zählte.

Er wurde kein Unfallopfer, er wurde überhaupt kein Opfer. Und davon erzählte er Rabbi und dem Chef. Slevin hat keine Tasse Kaffee getrunken, sie aber an Stühlen gefesselt und erzählt ihnen, was auf der Pferderennbahn Aqueduct über das siebte Pferd im neunten Rennen geschah.

Der einzige, der beschlossen hatte, den Auftrag zu erfüllen, war Gutkat, aber in letzter Minute hatte er Mitleid mit dem Jungen und nahm ihn mit.

Und der Rabbi und der Boss waren sich sicher, dass niemand übrig war. Dann kommen wieder Detektive zum Einsatz.

Während eines Telefongesprächs erzählt einer von ihnen dieselbe Geschichte im Jahr und erinnert sich an eine Kuriosität - das gleiche Pferd, das die Familie der Hauptfigur in Unglück brachte, trug den Namen "Lucky Number Slevin".

Dies war seine letzte Erinnerung.
