Product: Homicide [VHS]
Rating: 5.0
The unexpected is not necessarily bad.
This movie's title is somewhat misleading. Usually the word "homicide" makes us think of death in the American metropolis, however this film deals with murder on a much broader scale. Twists in the plot can sometimes be too violent, changing the movie's recognizably urban atmosphere into something almost surreal. This isn't to say that these changes are bad, they bring forth many powerful and emotional moments. As for the dialouge... superb. "Mametspeak" (as it has been referred to) is definitely unique, it can seem poetic without ever straying too far from reality.
