Hmmm... such a powerful name for a low low budget movie which was totally beyond my expectations. The beginning is somehow compromising and interesting, but as the movie runs the joy fastly diminishes. I must reckon that there is actually one sole fact which increases the grade of this film: the big twist present in the end.

Not recommended.

I liked the plot. Kept me guessing till the end but the acting was shoddy and the direction was pretty lousy. Intitally i guessed the killer but then the twists in the movie took me farther n farther away from the truth. A lot of twists in the story which actually kept me sitting in front of the TV to watch the entire movie.The end was such a waste to the whole plot. It could have been filmed really well and would have made watching the whole movie worthwhileThe director could have done a much better job with the movie.A movie i could watch once if i had nothing better to do.

This film was a low budget film, or at least that is how it came across. Horrible acting, predictable plot, and was painful to watch. After 30 minutes, I fast forwarded the DVD until it reached the end. I got the distinct impression that the movie producers had an open call to any unemployed actors who were willing to work for pennies. The lead actor has done good work in the past --- comedy at least -- so maybe he should stick with that (the movie was a joke, so maybe that was close). This was a movie filmed by amateurs and acted by the same type of individuals. In fact, I am wondering if I can get my money back from Blockbuster.

Very predictable with not much of a trick at the end. The beginning was very clumsy, even embarrassing, direction and not being able to grasp a good performance out of any of his actors, even the much under-rated Sean Young. Mr. Esposito later saved any interest in the movie. Cable then the video store is where this belongs, the director should watch Chinatown. Dallas offers much for a real noir, but this is not it. It is hard for a new director to engage this kind of film with any originality. The genre has been repeated many times , yet it is still valid. Walter Mosely can do it by writing. Donald Goines did it. Polanski did it. The Usual Suspects did it. Time is one thing, but realizing place, a real understanding of local, is another.
