I guessed the twist to this months ago, and almost convinced myself to avoid this movie altogether. I thought it was pretty decent, but something about it just didn't click with me. I guess that when you've seen as many B and C-grade movies as I have, a film like this is a bit hard to accept as either art or pulp. It's another one of those movies where the sum of the performances, which were all really solid, didn't result in a great film, but is still good quality entertainment. In the end though, it felt as though I had seen this movie before. I just wonder if had a lesser director and lesser cast been attached to the same project, would I like it as much? I honestly don't know the answer to that question. Watching it a second time might be sort of fun though to be able to study all of the characters once more. Anyway 3.5/5 stars.
