      Yves T I had this warm, comfy feeling that this film was from a Jim Thompson novel (it isn't): there's the bone-headed innocent main character with a target on his back, the friendly, slick older guy who befriends him, you just know that's going to lead to trouble, and the girl who's either actually desperate to be saved, or a great actress working with Slick— in brief, another welcome variation on After Dark My Sweet. To make up for poor picture quality (in daylight scenes all the colors are orange, nights are all blue) there's the fabulous Peter Coyote as the smooth manipulator; other actors put in an honest day's work. The Big Twist at the end is unfortunate: strains credulity, and at the same time goes "clunk: I've become such a cliche." But the ride there is richly satisfactory.

      Ken Eisner Variety Carves out unique territory -- even as it may freak out fans of genre convention. Apr 18, 2006 Full Review Felix Gonzalez Jr. DVD Review Just when we think we are coming to the truth, Marfield throws a curve that shatters all of our expectations. Jul 10, 2007 Full Review Scott Weinberg DVDTalk.com A whole lot better than most direct-to-video crime thrillers; it's just that this particular story's been done to death by this point. Rated: 3/5 Aug 5, 2006 Full Review Pablo Villaça Cinema em Cena O clima inquietante construdo pelo diretor estreante, somado s boas atuaes (de Black e Coyote, em particular) e ao bom roteiro (mesmo com alguns furos), transforma o filme em uma boa surpresa. Rated: 3/5 Apr 18, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews
