Critics Reviews

Entertainment Weekly
If, however, you're looking for compelling characters, all the lights are blazing here but nobody's at home.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto)
A masterpiece, but of a unique kind... A gorgeously filmed, supremely well-acted, intricately written film noir about now.

Users Reviews

If you like mobster movies and you like film noir, then this is a perfect movie for you to watch. Not a dull moment in the movie.
A flawless noir film that makes good use of all the clichés of the genre, taking advantage of the new liberties and visual of our times. Very enjoyable.
