This comedic crimer is a late-in-the-cycle Tarantino retread. Pyeton's script from Berkey's novel is deft, but Leslie Grief's awkward direction lacks modulation and visual style, and he doesn't even get decent performances from Stolz and Cameron Diaz.
A messy mix of soap opera, film noir, black comedy, and social satire, none of which is done very well.
A ham-handed and just plain dumb modern Midwest noir.
