It all gets off to a cracking start, only to dwindle very rapidly into thin and predictable variations on the formulaic ploys.

Reviews for Black Moon Rising
It took three screenplay writers to concoct this rather unamazing action-thriller about cars, thieves, and dirty tricks.
Cokliss's direction strains for a stylishness it doesn't achieve, yet his fundamentally straightforward style brings out the abstract design of the plot.
