Christopher Walken is in this movie which is a automatic watch. However, Colin Farrell is also in the movie which is usually an automatic no watch. Woody Harrelson and a solid cast of character actors round out the cast. The plot revoloves around a writer trying to finish a screenplay of a movie called Seven Psychopaths - yes it is one of those movies where you're never quite sure what is going on. The opening will grab you as two hitmen discuss shooting someone in the eye and we get a Mo Green reference.

We are introduced to the seven psychopaths with great hilarity and some nice plot twists. The violence is gruesome and cartoonish. Halfway through I found myself laughing out loud. It is well done

Spoiler Alert - it makes the Half Brain hall of fame because the ending has a monk light himself on fire in Saigon 1963. One of several deaths by fire in the movie

Highly recommended. 5 stars. Fuck off
 
Unnecessarily convoluted. The significance of the dog is unresolved. The correct ending was to have Zachariah take sympathy on colin Farrell because of the innocent dog and exchanging the dog with the rabbit - with the rabbit symbolizing something from an earlier setup in the movie.
 
the subtle under text of not allowing any violence to the animals while killing every human in sight was nice
