A Descent into Dullness

Erik the Viking (Tim Robbins), tiring of a life of constant pillage and murder, sets out to find Asgard. And then to awaken the gods and bring an end to the Wolf Age of Ragnarok. But the sadistic Halfdan the Black (John Cleese) is in pursuit of Erik and his band to stop them...

This is actually an extended cut version by director Terry Jones' son Bill. But its been so long so I've seen the movie I'm not sure what parts are added. Good movie though. Bad special f/x of course. But its more a character piece...

Ben Kingsley plays a drunken Polish mob hitman. After passing out when he's supposed to be killing Dennis Farina's Irish mob boss he gets sent to San Francisco to clean up. There he joins AA, becomes a mortician and starts dating Tea Leoni. Also confessing his job to pretty much everybody...

Really even in AA you'd think people would be more willing to try and turn him in...

Also Leoni is surprisingly NOT annoying in this. Always a shock...

ETA: Oh yeah and Kingsley's ears ARE HUGE. I can't stop staring at them...
