Wow

Gary Oldman, you continue to amaze me...but Wow! this movie was crap! I can enjoy a GOOD noir flick, albeit gernerally on a strictly entertaining basis. But noir flicks have to make sense, not just ramble on and on for two hours using cheap gimmicky time flips to attain our attention and prodding a dead beast of a film with the inexplicable. I blame the writer most of all, and then the director close behind. It certainly wasn't the actors who bauched this rank bore of a film. Endless. It was endless. The dialogue was terrible (in an awkward accidental kind of way, not a noir kind of way), and the plot points became increasingly ignorant of sanity and coherance. Oh, and by the way, it wasn't a saw but Mark Ishams tedium rambling through the movie which grated that woman's arm down to its goofy little nub ('with, or without?'...God, what twit thought that line up...). What a terrible score.

It is no wonder Bon Jovi pulled there song 'Always' from this flick and saved their careers.

The only thing great about this movie was the final scene, but because you don't give a damn about the characters, you feel, therefore, nothing of a response. That was the tragedy of this movie.
