Anyone familiar with film noir will certainly know Raymond Chandler's detective Philip Marlowe.

Liam Neeson plays theAnyone familiar with film noir will certainly know Raymond Chandler's detective Philip Marlowe. This newest adaptation is from his novel "The Black-Eyed Blonde," which not actually from one of his Marlowe series. Liam Neeson plays the character with Diane Kruger as the femme fatale. The performances (including Jessica Lange) are all bland, even Neeson adds no depth or interest with his performance. Director Neil Jordan has imbued the film with a moody look and other elements of the genre, but it still feels flat and lacks any style. It has all of the elements of a good Chandler crime thriller, but none of them come together in any way that's thrilling. Expand

I'd still say this is slightly above the average B movie. Neeson carries much of Marlowe.

It has the cheap veneer of the noire genre but, honestly, you’d be way better off playing a game like L.A. Noire. This is the stage of entertainment we’re at now: games used to try to emulate the quality of movies, but now modern movies are easily outshined by modern games. Cool structure—poorly executed. Expand
