Opening sequence. (As it is the opening sequence, this is not a spoiler.) Chili Palmer and Tommy Athens are out driving, then stop by a café to talk. While Chili's in the men's room, a Russian hit-man appears, with a high caliber automatic pistol, probably a .45, and starts shooting the place up. After putting a few holes in things, including Chili's car and friend, the Russian takes a break. Now, we can see that the slide is in the forward position, indicating that there's still at least one cartridge left in the automatic. Instead of laying low, Chili chooses to step forward, facing the gunman. At this point the big gun comes up again, pointed at Chili, but when the killer pulls the trigger, the pistol misfires. Instead of a big hole in Palmer's face, we get a dry click. Question is, how did Palmer know the gun would misfire? Is he precognitive, or just suicidal?
Apart from the shaky start, Be Cool is a cool movie, more like a long music video, but still cool. Christina Milian is nothing short of fantastic, and there are a lot of cool cameos. At the end of the day, I enjoyed it very much. 7/10
