The Whole Nine Yards (殺手不眨眼) is an 2000 film. The movie stars Bruce Willis and Matthew Perry. The supporting cast include Rosanna Arquette, Michael Clarke Duncan, Natasha Henstridge, Amanda Peet, and Kevin Pollak.
Willis plays Jimmy "the Tulip" Tudeski, a famous hitman. He's made by his neighbor, played by Perry, Nicholas "Oz" Ozeranski. Oz was from Chicago but is now working in Quebec as a dentist. As they become friends, Jimmy ask Oz to help him out. Pull in old flames, a conniving wife, law enforcement, you've got a crazy story.
I've seen this film on and off through the years as it's a constant on reruns. I actually saw this in the theatre back in 2000 at the height of the "Friends" era of TV dominance. Throw in lots of other familiar faces like Henstridge and Arquette, it was a very fun watch. The character was just a more scared version of Chandler Bing. Which didn't make it a stretch to believe Perry in this role. The unique parts were when Arquette, Duncan, Henstridge, and Peet played against their "type" up to that point in their careers.
