Get Shorty [Blu-ray] [Collectible Faceplate] [1995]

John Travolta made this a year after he burst back onto the scene with Pulp Fiction and cemented the fact he was one of the most (arguably) successful actors of the 1990s. This blu looks and sounds great, so it is worth the double-dip if you already have the DVD (like myself). The film pokes fun at the absurdity of Hollywood like few other films have the guts to. Totally worthy of a spot in your library.

This movie was one of many Hollywood adaptions of novelist Elmore Leonard's books. He was one of Quentin Tarantino's influences. John Travolta, stars in this movie during the career renaissance he enjoyed after starring in Pulp Fiction. He plays loan shark Chilli Palmer and does a fantastic job of giving a voice to Leonard's words. Fun fact: Tony Soprano, the actor who would later play him anyways, also starred in this film. Though starred is used loosely, as he wasn't a very prominent actor until he landed the role of Tony Soprano.

If you like action movies and you are a fan of john Travolta, you'll like this movie. I enjoyed the movie. Even If you not a Travolta fan you will like this movie.

It’s a great dram comedy. John Travolta is awesome, and The Rock is hilarious!!! Good movie for a chill movie night.

I had forgotten all about adding this movie to my collection, so I'm happy that I found it on sale.
