| Beskrivelse: [ Dansk Engelsk ] Da Chili Palmers bedste ven bliver likvideret, fordi han ikke kan betale sin gæld, træder Chili beredvilligt til og hjælper hans betrængte enke, den kønne og kloge Eddie, som nu forsøger at drive sin mands fallerede pladeselskab videre, samtidig med at hun skal holde de særdeles nærgående kreditorer fra døren. Chili tager den unge, talentfulde sangerinde Linda Moon under sine vinger. Snart er han oppe imod såvel den russiske mafia som en flok særprægede gangsta-rappere. Det er alles kamp mod alle i et farligt spil der kræver opbydelsen af al Chilis rådsnarhed og hele hans forhandlingstalent, og nu går den vilde jagt fra pladeselskabet over en Aerosmith-koncert til MTV Music Awards, mens Chili manipulerer begivenhederne, så alting ender med at gå ”the Chili Way” – dvs. at den kloge Chili narrer de mindre kloge.
Beskrivelse: [ Dansk Engelsk ] John Travolta returns as Chili Palmer in the long awaited follow-up to the blockbuster hit 'Get Shorty' (1995). Gangster-turned-movie producer Chili (Travolta) has grown tired of the screen trade, especially after his latest project turned out to be a box-office flop. Chili is looking for new horizons and thinks he may have found his niche when his close friend Tommy Athens (James Woods), a fellow mobster who runs an independent record label, is murdered by Russian gangsters. Chili takes over Athens' record company, Nothing to Lose Records, and begins courting Tommy's girlfriend, Edie (Uma Thurman). Edie is an experienced hand in record production, and together she and Chili spot what would seem to be the ideal act for their label - Linda Moon (Christina Milian), a beautiful young woman with a powerhouse voice. Linda is stuck, however, in a going-nowhere R&B trio managed by the monumentally sleazy Raji (Vince Vaughn). Chili isn't much concerned about Linda's contract with Raji, but Raji certainly is, and the manager soon takes out a contract on Chili with the same Russian hoods who killed Tommy. Soon Chili is facing all the action he can handle between the Russian gunmen, a music mogul named Nick Carr (Harvey Keitel) who wants Chili to stay out of the business, and Sin LaSalle (Cedric the Entertainer), a successful hip-hop producer who wants Chili to pay him the 300,000 dollars he is owed by Tommy. | Ekstra features:
