Idea is there but the polish isn't

Rating: 8/10 (9 October 2001)

What would the movie have been like with better production, such as sets and shots that do not remind one of a rerun of TV's Mannix? I felt like all the scenes included the opening and closing of doors (usually car doors), along with shots around cars, watching the cars pull away, scenes where characters LOOK at or comment on cars. Is that what it's about? It's so low budget feeling.
The story, the unfolding, or re-folding, is much better than the production or the editing, so brace yourself if you haven't seen the film. For a movie with this high of an IMDB rating, it's neither artsy-indie nor traditional hollywood in terms of the feel of the movie.
