Anti-Hero

Rating: 8/10 (24 April 2007)

In more ways than one. But still you kinda root for that guy. It's not so much the love story that is the anchor of the movie, but the self destructive way of the main character, that does attract us to the film!
Some men might argue that the main attraction is Scarlett J. and I wouldn't want to disagree (optically speaking), but her character ... you have to be/feel sorry for her! Funnily enough the little detective story (thrill) at the end, does not distract from the main theme. Quite the contrary, the fact that our main character doesn't get punished for his sins (by the justice/police), but has to live with them for the rest of his life, is punishment enough!
