James Gandolfini, the New Jersey Mafia in HBO's "The Sopranos", plays a gay hitman in this film.

The 85% rating on Rotten Tomato is enough to prove the excellence of this film.

"Until now. Get Shorty serves up Leonard in grand style. There are a few broad strokes, and the stew could have used a dash more menace and sexual simmer. "
A commentary on the film from "Rolling Stone": http: //www.rollingstone.com/reviews/movie/5948887/review/5948888/get_shorty
"You leave Get Shorty with a sensation akin to Chili's when he leaves Orson Welles' Touch of Evil at a revival house. "Wow, huh?" says Chili to the strangers in the theater as the lights go up. It's the kick that comes when a movie gets it right despite the odds. Get Shorty gets it wonderfully right. Wow, huh?"
