Zero entertainment value would be the best way to describe this wretched film. Billy Zane is a strutting ass, so pompous and unlikable that you will immediately be disgusted. His religious rants make no sense as does the entire movie. Equally unlikable is his twin sister, Gina Gershon, who portrays a street trollop with no scruples. Both are so stuck on themselves and each other that they are two of the most boorish characters I've ever seen on the screen. Constant voice overs only add to the train wreck of a script, which is basically unwatchable. This movie is a real turn off, and most definitely should be avoided. - MERK

Great little low budget Tarantino type flick. Had to watch it twice to really appreciate. Sheryl Lee who plays Billy Zane's lover Lois reminds me of young Kim Novak...Sexy, Beautiful, and very talented. Surprised she hasn't made it bigger on the big screen. Also, the music is so period-appropriate. If you are an older dude like me you will love it! I will be looking to see if a soundtrack is available!!I don't have much more to say, I know I must have a minimum of ten lines so here goes! Great little movie.....................Great little movie................Great little movie................................Great little movie.............................Great little movie!!!

I love everything about this movie. To be low budget and not very well known, I believe that this is one of the best movies I've ever seen. Everything from the use of color, plot, acting, narration, music, etc. It's tremendous! Billy Zane proved yet again that he has talent. I consider this one of his better movies and severely underrated. I would highly recommend this to anyone who isn't just a Billy Zane fan, but someone who appreciate good movies. It'll keep you on the edge of your seat. Definitely worth renting, purchasing or viewing on one of the cable channels. I give it two thumbs up.Hooray for This World, Then The Fireworks!!

If you like movies that are warped, dysfunctional, and twisted and you like looking at beautiful people, then this movie is for you. It is a touching tale of sibling love. Billy Zane, Gina Gershon & Sheryl Lee play the main characters and as usual are great in this film. There is a lot of subtlety in the ways that each of the characters develop, not only in the dialog but also in the use of lighting and camera angles. For me, I found it to be a very intriguing movie; I had no idea where it was headed. It is not what I would consider an action type movie but is instead a more character driven movie. You really need to pay attention to the little things going on to fully appreciate how great this movie is. I loved this movie and hope that more folks will watch it.
