Huh?

Rating: 3/10 (29 April 2004)

I heard that this was a good movie before I rented it. It's about a murder in 1950's Hollywood and some cops want to cover it up and some don't or something. Russell Crowe is one of the detectives and he seems to be in fog the time. Danny Devito is a gossip columnist. I don't understand what is so interesting about this movie. It goes at a snail's pace. Almost nothing happens. The dialogue isn't interesting at all. This has to be one of the most overrated movies of all time,the same vien as Taxi Driver with DeNiro or Eyes wide - supposed to be great, but is incredibly boring. This entire movie easily could have been done half an hour. Gave it 3 out 10, and that is being charitable.
