Setup Starring Ryan Philippe

Setup is one of the better gangster dramas released in 2011. Perhaps I am a little nostalgic because Ryan Philippe reminds of the more innocent era of films that included Cruel Intentions. Usually these archetypal mobster feature films are destroyed by obsessive vulgarity and profanity. Profanity can serve a purpose but to substitute what could be meaningful storytelling and dialogue for obscenities is ironically obscene. Setup offers what the recently released Catch 44 does not, some measure of a plot and interesting conversation.

Vincent Long (Philippe) has been friends with Sonny (50 Cent) and Dave Hall (Brett Granstaff) his whole life. They watch each other's backs and protect one another at any cost. When a diamond (literally) opportunity comes their way, all loyalties are tested and they fail. Vincent captures five million dollars in mob diamonds. Sonny and Dave expect to split the earnings three ways. Being a businessman (though not highly rated by the Better Business Bureau), Vincent wants the entire stash for himself. After all, we come to find out if he does not relinquish the entire sum to yet another mobster, his father will be murdered in prison (played by James Remar, who happens to play a psychotic convict with style). To protect his father and to remain alive, Vincent attempts to murder his best friends in cold blood. Unfortunately for him one of them survives. Dave leaves behind a beautiful widow (Susie Abromeit) who is aggrieved and heartbroken. Sonny miraculously escapes his fate when his cross partially deflects the bullet that would have dismembered him.

Sonny vows revenge, but nothing comes easy. He is approached by gangsters demanding he provide them with the whereabouts of Vincent, and by another mob boss (Bruce Willis as the comical and philosophizing Biggs). He is caught between a gun and a coffin place. Sonny's trail of revenge takes him to the drug store, the cemetery, to his Mary Jane dealing friend's house, and to various houses and alleyways. All the while, Sonny continues to leave most of his victims uninjured as he is not a killer, just a thief! Honor among thieves, tsk tsk. Meanwhile, Vincent is busy kowtowing to mobsters and protecting his sister Kelli (Jordan Trovillian) simultaneously.

Oft times the conversations in Setup are hilarious. Bruce Willis's character believes that reading the sports page while supping on breakfast meats is life's most enjoyable activity...next to torturing people. Fifty Cent is sweet despite his pilfering misgivings. Who would have believed a man calling himself "fi-tty cent" whose music has long since been ignored, could turn in a halfway decent acting performance? Ryan Philippe can turn the on and off switch and vacillate between menace and mench like no other actor. Overall, Setup is a killer movie.
