Castings are right. Direction is good. Editing is the joy.

Rating: 9/10 (15 November 1998)

Very realistic view of underworld inhabited by drugs, perversions and violence.
The film if edited chronologically would not have the impact on our view of these characters. It is the juxtaposition of the past with the future events and visa versa that weaves the story so well, and gives us (the people plunking down the money) the confidence that it was time and money well spent.
