Pretty sloppy and bungled movie that is more.. I don't know, character study? then anything else (it's not a mystery, or drama, the "murder" is rather, well, inconsequential). Mainly involving small-time politics, two timing females, and some music, this was a mess from the get-go. Some bonus points, Edna Mae Harris from Lying Lips is in this yay, the hilarious hunch backed bad guy, and the other bad guy who I swear, swears at the 18:00 min mark by saying "It took 5 minutes for her to fuck it up"

Rated 1 out of 5 stars
