Is against all gangsters cliches.
'Paulo: Put your hands up!
Hans: No.
Paulo: What?
Hans: I said no.
Paulo: Why not?
Hans: Because I don't want to.
Paulo: But I've got a gun...
Hans: I don't care.
Paulo: It doesn't make any sense!
Hans: Too bad!

Zachariah: I'm going to be over to kill you Tuesday.
Marty: [Nods] . That's good, I'm not doing anything Tuesday.'
Good underground actors. Michael Pitt , Michael Stuhlbarg (both from the TV series Boardwalk Empires), Sam Rockwell (know from some classics, but also 'Frost/Nixon' and 'Choke', being the same psychopath also back there. Not to mention Christopher Walken or let's say Colin Farrell.
Also, not to forget the natural born killer Woody Harrelson, although he did also political movies, plus No Country for Old Men and so on. + Tom Waits.
Credibility. Farrell is well known also in real life to have an alcohol addiction and to be living in Los Angeles. L.A is also depicted as real as it gets, except with the kidnapping dogs scam. When talking about L.A you get also those Californian cars. There's this screenwriting-video making-actor-building industry in L.A that is perfectly underlined in the movie.
Trivia. Farrell wakes up 5 times completely drunk in this movie. Is also funny how the gangsters are made humans by sticking them with some bunnies, flowers and cute dogs, crying and having problems handling condoms. You don't get that a lot in the gangester movies.
Music that gets you and good video cuts. So that seems very low cost and realistic / local for LA.
Screenwriting hints.'Is laywered', 'you cannot explode a head like that', some of the psychopaths really prove a screenwriter insight.
