Not a bad little flick

Rating: Null/10 (4 October 1998)

Overall an apt moviemaking experience. Suffers from miscasting a bit but generally pleasant enough. Not to be taken too seriously, telegraphs the punches, twists a bit and leaves enough loose ends to make a tv series, but worth the time to see it. A slight suggestion of "Out of the Past", (of course, pales beside that little masterpiece) but definitely not of the same caliber as "Chinatown". More of this from the Hollywood elite would be a welcome treat and I for one would consider going out to the cinema more often. Russell Crowe certainly does alright in this-like to see him try more like this.
