Hah. Lock, stock and a smoking keypad.

I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood. You tell the angels in heaven you never seen evil so singularly personified as you did in the face of the man who killed you. My name is Vincent Coccotti. I work as counsel for Mr. Blue Lou Boyle, the man your son stole from. I hear you were once a cop so I can assume you've heard of us before. Am I correct?

This is the start of a conversation that shows the true meaning behind cliches such as "laughing in the face of your doom".

Is my answer correct? Should I post a new Movie Quote?

You are correct! Go ahead and post a new quote!

Swordfish

I think this is about as short as one can go and still have a recognizable (I think) movie.

"I'll be back" has the same number of letters, but that makes four words instead of just one....

A longer one?

Well I'll just guess that the movie is called Swordfish too.

No, sorry, this is not the title. I thought that passage was famous enough. I'll give a longer version I found at a different place so XXX's accented english is spelled a bit differently ("whatsa matta" was written "what's-a matter" in the other site)

XXX: You mean chocolate calomel. I like that too, but you no guess it. (Slams door. YYY knocks again. XXX opens the peephole again.) Hey, whatsa matta? You no understand English? You can't come in here unless you say swordfish! Now, I give you one more guess.

YYY: (thinking) Swordfish...swordfish...I think I got it! Is it swordfish?

XXX: Ha! That's it! You guess it!

A few hints:

- this is an old BW "classic", I'm surprised noone found it yet
- I discussed it on a different thread shortly before first posting it here
- and now a dead giveway: in real life, the actors who play XXX and YYY are brothers

Oh, come on

A great old BW classic!

In addition to the actors who play XXX and YYY, two more real-life brothers of them play in this movie. One plays YYY's son (though he is really only 11 years younger) and the other one tries to authenticate an official document with the help of a piscivorous sea-mammal.
