GET SHORTY is a movie that was made in a unique time, when the concept of a brutal gangster/movie-buff taking over Hollywood was a unique idea. Now in the decade and several years after Quentin Tarantino and Kevin Smith and other pop culture-referening directors have laid their seed, I doubt GET SHORTY wouldn't be as unique....especially with that surprise little cameo in the movie's end that I got a kick out of.

Good review pizzaboy.
