This undermarketed noir suffers because many of its characters don't seem to belong in the same universe.
Ellen Fox, Chicago Tribune
Rotten
... just a ridiculous story that layers one ridiculous, silly, contrivance after another.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
Rotten
For all the talent on screen, no one has much chemistry.
