Talqylaý → Fılmder → Lucky Number Slevin → Jalpy
One of the worst lines ever (minor spoilers)

This movie is full of quick wit, a breakneck pace to the snappy dialog, and so many slick one-liners that it was obviously written - normal, real people just aren't that slick...
Up until the end.
When, Goodkat appears in front of Slevin that last time, and Slevin says "I didn't think you'd understand," that drove me nuts...Slevin was at that point because Goodkat understood before Slevin was even old enough to understand. He should have known better.

Yes but he was never on the other side like Goodkat was. It probably didn't even dawn on him.

Nah. It appears Goodkat may have actually raised Slevin, helping him hone his skills and prepare for the revenge plot. Meanwhile, Goodkat continued to earn a living as a hitman, which alone meant Slevin's life was never far from the underworld.
There's no believable way Slevin could possibly think Goodkat - of all people - wouldn't understand. For all this movie's slick dialog, that last line was just poorly written.
Still, an entertaining movie. No movie is perfect, and I'm not suggesting this last line ruins the overall entertainment value, it just seems lazy.

I think you missed my point. Slevin saw Kat's (most likely single) act of kindness directed at him when he was a child. I'm sure that was the only act of mercy he ever saw from Kat, due to his profession. Kat's lack of mercy and compassion was what Slevin was used to seeing for decades which was why I suggested that it could have taken him by surprise that he "understood".

Interesting point, I'm hearing you.
I'd only suggest, in response to this, that the relationship between Goodkat and Slevin should have been more indicative, to Slevin, of what Goodkat might or might not have done, than how Goodkat deported himself to his job. It's always remarkable to see family members of bad people overlook the evil because of how nice they treat their family members. Think of mob wives and children who know what daddy does...but he's always home for supper and never misses birthdays, and presto, he's a good guy - forget about the rat daddy just stuffed in a drum and dissolved in lime, that's just business.
But, hey, I could be wrong. :-) I appreciate the conversation and your differing point of view - maybe I could lighten up, a bit, on this. As I said, the movie is still entertaining notwithstanding.
