Sinopsis: Jimmy es un gángster retirado apodado "El Santo" porque nunca mató a un hombre; las palabras y la elegancia eran sus armas. Jimmy vive una existencia tranquila en la ciudad de Denver, hasta que un buen día recibe la visita de su antiguo jefe. Éste, apodado "El hombre con un plan", le propone un último trabajo: dar un susto a un chico que mantiene relaciones con la ex-novia de su hijo. Para llevar a cabo su tarea, Jimmy reúne a sus viejos compinches. Pero uno de ellos, pierde los nervios y la cosa acaba mal... (FILMAFFINITY)

"Interesantísima combinación de cine policiaco y comedia negra. Original y con una atractiva galería de curiosos personajes" (Fernando Morales: Diario El País)

"Una sorpresa mayor; Fleder deslumbra con un thriller fatalista, pausado y salvaje capaz de parir uno de esos personajes difícilmente olvidables: García-El Santo. A retener: esa cantinela de perdedores que reza: 'Las cosas son como son'." (Luis Martínez: Diario El País)
AMG Synopsis: In the mode of Quentin Tarantino, this film, directed by Gary Fleder from a script by Scott Rosenberg, concerns itself with hip, smart gangsters. The film is set in Denver, and the title comes from a Warren Zevon song. A retired, good-hearted gangster named Jimmy the Saint (Andy Garcia) runs a company that videotapes dying people giving life advice to their children and grandchildren, to be delivered when they come of age. Jimmy's former crime boss, The Man with the Plan (Christopher Walken), summons him. The Man is wheelchair-bound and doesn't have long to live; he explains that Jimmy owes him a favor and must perform one final job. It involves frightening the boyfriend of the ex-girlfriend of Bernard (Michael Nicolosi), the son of The Man, who has been so shaken by the girl's rejection of him that he has been fondling schoolyard children. Jimmy rounds up his old gang -- including Pieces (Christopher Lloyd), a porno theater projectionist; Franchise (William Forsythe), an ex-biker with a trailer-trash family to support; Critical Bill (Treat Williams), a psychotic, trigger-happy ex-con; and Easy Wind (Bill Nunn), an exterminator. Pieces and Bill pose as cops as part of the needlessly elaborate plan, which misfires badly. The Man, enraged, gives Jimmy 48 hours to leave town, and he orders his comrades wiped out, hiring the notorious hitman Mr. Shhh (Steve Buscemi) to track them down. But Jimmy can't seem to get the others to leave town, and despite The Man's decree, Jimmy is also reluctant to leave, because he's become romantically entangled with Dagney (Gabrielle Anwar). Jack Warden's character serves as a kind of Greek chorus who comments from time to time on the unfolding action.
AMG Review: The Man With the Plan, Mister Shhh, Jimmy the Saint, Pieces -- did they think they were casting "Reservoir Dogs 2"? In the wrong hands -- like those of novice director Gary Fleder and novice writer Scott Rosenberg -- such cutesy mob monikers are no better than derivative. Usually, they're a lot worse, existing primarily to draw attention from major script problems, their hip quotient a seeming cure-all. Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead is bursting with recycled setups and coattail-riding, one of countless sputtering crime dramas released in the immediate years after Quentin Tarantino revived the genre and gave it his own (irrevocable) talk-driven spin. Andy Garcia quietly glowers like a man already dead, which is kind of the point, but it's a one-note performance nonetheless, and it's not the only one in the film. The one actor who generates presence is Treat Williams, practically burning through the celluloid as a ticking time bomb who does and says the most unpredictable things. Williams gives the film its only doses of comedy and menace; it needed more of both, and less of the tacked-on romance between Garcia and Gabrielle Anwar. Don't let the title fool you -- there's not much going on here.
