David K It's not that the dialogue is bad, or the acting is not on target, rather it's that there are some gaping holes in the plot and it all ties in way too cleanly to conform to Code requirements. Crime Doesn't Pay! Another in the no one could be so stupid as to make this move...oops! Spoke too soon.
