hahaha!! just watched it, looks quality! wee bit cheesy, but everyone loves a bit of cheese now and again. i remember watching it from when i was younger now, bowser reminded me! bob is sporting a brilliant mario mustache.
luigi is the guy from romeo + juliet!! the one romeo kills.

John Luguizimo as Luigi, who was also Benny from the Bronx in Cartlito's Way.
If you want to see Bob REALLY good, watch The Long Good Friday (as gangster Harold Shand). Either that or Mona Lisa. He kicks ass.

That look that he gives at the end of the film when he's trapped in the car and he knows he's totally f****d is absolutely priceless. That guy from casualty gets it in the neck from a broken bottle from bob.
I've never watched mona lisa, any good then???

Watch out for Hoskins in The Long Good Friday, Zulu Dawn, Hollywoodland, Brazil, Mrs. Henderson Presents, Paris Je'taime and a bloody funny cameo in Frasier.

No mention of his greatest performance in Mona lisa shame on you guys ;D he won a ton of awards for it and should have won a oscar too but the oscar's gave it to Paul newman |
