Some good performances, but overall over-rated and boring.

Rating: 3/10 (10 July 2002)

I do not see why this film is so popular. It's kind of disappointing that many people believe this movie is comparable to Reservoir Dogs or Pulp Fiction. The cast is admirable, the acting is good, however the story itself had no appeal to me, at least as it was portrayed by Tony Scott. Christian Slater plays a silly, unbelievable character with a cocky smile on his face throughout the movie. However, good one-scene performances come from Gary Oldman and Dennis Hopper.
4/10 - A good cast and acting can't make up for poor directing and content.
