Great Script

Rating: 9/10 (1 February 2008)

I love this movie. it has a very, very good script. There is a wonderful Set-ups and pay off. I didn't read the novel, and I don't feel i should do, the movie is just fine. I liked the most is the three main characters in the movie, We almost know everything about them in a few scenes. I noticed the way they changes step by step so the ending would be understandable easily. i was amazed by the craft and the way the screenplay was written. I still watch this movie to learn a lot about the screenplay. Very Good indeed. i think we should treat this movie as a new-noir, and we can notice that from the mood of the movie, the characters, the mix of right and wrong in them. i think there is a link between this movie and "Chinatown", it contain the same theme, and i mean the same city, the small crimes that leads to BIG crimes. I Liked That Movie.
