YOU KILL ME (BEN KINGLSEY, TEA LEONI, LUKE WILSON;2007)


GHANDI'S BACK! IN THIS DARK ROMANTIC COMEDY. THIS TIME HE MEDITATES LIKE REST OF THE WORLD, WITH A BOTTLE OF VODKA AND A LOADED GUN. FOR THIS CHALLENGING ROLE GHANDI DROPPED THE ROBE, THE HUMMING, AND THE 'TUDE. GHANDI '08 MORPHED INTO THIS PART WITHOUT A PRAYER. HE STARS AS AN ALCOHOLIC HITMAN FOR THE POLISH MOB IN THIS BAG OF LAUGHS. GHANDI'S CHARACTER, FRANK, IS TRANSPLANTED FROM BUFFALO TO SAN FRANCISCO AFTER HE DRUNKENLY SLEEPS THROUGH A CRUCIAL "HIT." WHILE IN SAN FRAN, FRANK ATTENDS A.A. MEETINGS, NAILS THE GIRL FROM BAD BOYS, AND GETS A DAY JOB IN A MORTURARY. MY GOD! IT'S COMIC GENIUS! LUKE WILSON ALSO SKIPS THROUGH THIS FILM WITH THE ENTHUSIAM OF A DETOXING HEROIN ADDICT.... JESUS. I'M DONE......SERIOUSLY PEOPLE...WHAT HAS BEN KINGSLEY STARRED IN THAT WAS TRULY ENTERTAINING? EXCEPT FOR SNEAKERS OF COURSE. FOR A KNIGHTED, OSCAR WINNER, HE SURE KNOWS HOW TO SHIT THE BED WHEN CHOOSING ROLES. DARE I SAY, "GHANDI'S SNEAKERS?"
