The Bannen Way–About as polar opposite a crime flick from Jesse Stone as you could concoct, The Brannen Way was originally a made-for-the-Internet webisode series–a major-studio synergy experiment to see what happens when you put a little cash and flash into a web series. What happens (as collected here seamlessly into a full-length film) is a pretty by-the-numbers Tarantino/Smoking Aces/Guy Ritchie/Oceans 11 mash-up, but that’s not all bad. It’s directed and co-written by Jesse Warren, and series co-writer Mark Gantt stars as Neal Bannen, your usual roguish, hard-luck thief in cool suits, but Gantt’s a likable stretch of sleazy, Christian-Slater charisma.
