New movie list Seven Psychopaths Marty (Farrell) is a struggling writer who dreams of finishing his screenplay, "Seven Psychopaths". Billy (Rockwell) is Marty's best friend, an unemployed actor and part time dog thief, who wants to help Marty by any means necessary. All he needs is a little focus and inspiration. Hans (Walken) is Billy's partner in crime. A religious man with a violent past. Charlie (Harrelson) is the psychopathetic gangster whose beloved dog, Billy and Hans have just stolen. Charlie's unpredictable, extremely violent and wouldn't think twice about killing anyone or anything associated with the theft. Marty is going to get all the focus and inspiration he needs, just as long as he lives to tell the tale. -- (C) Official Site Release Date Seven Psychopaths Oct 12, 2012 Limited | |

Review For Seven Psychopaths |
The kind of messy, absurdist movie that can lift you out of a crappy mood-at least for a while. David Denby-New Yorker
This is one of the best times I've had at the movies in years. Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com
All this narrative nesting and genre-skipping sounds very cerebral on the page, but in practice, Seven Psychopaths is as pleasurably kinetic as can be, full of double-crosses and gunplay and sun-kissed SoCal locations. Dana Stevens-Slate
Each time it appears that McDonagh, who also directed, has written himself into a cul de sac, he off-roads the movie (sometimes literally) into fresh territory. Christopher Orr-The Atlantic
Yes, it's a lot to keep track of, but writer-director Martin McDonagh does so with deft humor as the film hurls toward a desert climax, foreshadowed in one of Billy and Marty's exchanges. Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post
For about 75 minutes, Seven Psychopaths is a rollicking good movie - kinetic, clever, funny, and brutal. Then, inexplicably, it falls apart. James Berardinelli-ReelViews
Another gleefully dark comedy thriller from In Bruges creator Martin McDonagh featuring gabby killers, scabrously funny dialogue and moments of shocking violence. Jason Best-Movie Talk
McDonagh achieves the tricky feat of balancing cleverness, carnage, and compassion. Peter Keough-Boston Phoenix
...the moment to moment of the unparalleled craziness that experimental narrative, character dexterity and into the depths of McDonagh's necessary second album psychosis. Blake Howard-2UE That Movie Show
Mostly the ruthless black humour is sustained, and occasionally some genuine emotion can creep in and touch our hearts. Philip French-Observer [UK]
...an entertainingly erratic effort... David Nusair-Reel Film Reviews
At times, the galloping absurdity drifts into off-the-peg comedy gangster cliché. But McDonagh's brilliant way with one-liners always claws back enough ground to stifle any groans. Donald Clarke-Irish Times
Martin McDonagh gleefully plays with both the gang thriller genre and the moviemaking process with this enjoyably absurd action comedy. It's a little self-indulgent, acknowledging how difficult he found it to follow up his acclaimed film In Bruges. Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com
There's not much point to a meta-film once the actual film has ceased to grip. David Sexton-This is London
[A] black comedy loaded with some fabulous, all-American visual touches. Graham Young-Birmingham Mail
[B]ursting with equal parts exasperation, despair, cultural criticism, and black comedy... MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher
McDonagh has enough ideas for six films, but with them all crammed into one, the effect of each is lost. Alex Zane-Sun Online
Too much is so clever-clever that it borders on the stupid. Christopher Tookey-Daily Mail [UK]
It loses its way after a while but the performances are excellent and there's some jaunty dialogue. Henry Fitzherbert-Daily Express
Self-aware stupidity does not equal wit. Robbie Collin-Daily Telegraph
Christopher Walken has starred in over one hundred movies and whether he is playing a deer hunter or a dog-napper, has there ever been a better scene stealer? Brian Henry Martin-UTV
Clever, ludic, perky, perspicacious - and ever so slightly tiring. Nigel Andrews-Financial Times
After a while the narrative falters, the ideas flag and it simply gets dull ... Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
McDonagh is undoubtedly a very clever man, but with Seven Psychopaths he is interested in nothing more than celebrating his own cleverness. Philip Concannon-The Skinny
The performances are superb and the dialogue is often hilarious, but the script is both all over the place and not nearly as clever as it thinks it is. Matthew Turner-ViewLondon
A movie about making a movie that constantly reminds us we're watching a movie, with characters discussing what should happen in the "movie" movie that naturally winds up influencing the movie we're all watching. Kind of. Rob Daniel-Sky Movies
