75
Doesn't come close to the pulp beauty and complexity of classic noir.
75
Has the refined taste to crib from classics like "Double Indemnity."
50
The plot thickens and thickens and thickens until it chokes on a tangled mess of double-crosses.
40
Director Mike Barber springs a twist ending that makes you sit up and stifle those yawns.
38
A cast almost talented enough to distract you from Ted Griffin's gimmicky screenplay.
