Nauseating trash

Rating: 2/10 (11 June 2002)

If the viewer enjoys reading bizarre, sensationalistic stories in The National Enquirer and watching surgical procedures on cable TV, this film might be of interest. It is not recommended for after dinner viewing unless one happens to suffer from bulimia. The fact that it has received such high viewer ratings speaks volumes about the state of society in the present day. The only redeeming feature is the performance delivered by Morgan Freeman as the veteran detective. Otherwise, it is a stomach churning gore fest in the deviant style so pervasive today. The events portrayed herein seem intended only to appeal to the very worst aspects of indecent human behavior. With films such as this setting the example, it is no surprise that our social structure is deteriorating so rapidly.
