As for that story, it's good enough, but honestly I fail to see what everyone's all worked up about.

Even though the plot is propelled by lust and vengeance, there's no heat in the movie.

There's plenty of snappy plotting and double-crossing around it, with bitter twists and well-delivered, wonderfully literate, hard-nosed dialogue.

An amazingly entertaining film, loaded with zesty dialogue, gorgeously staged sequences and a bevy of wild characters.

Crossing is the kind of movie that benefits from a second sitting, to get a complete grip on the plot.

While Miller's Crossing is not as messy or inspired as Martin Scorsese's GoodFellas, or as richly suggestive as The Godfather, it accomplishes exactly what it sets out to do.

While it unfolds, the viewer is entirely in thrall.

As disturbing and densely beautiful as its opening image.

The story, which is extremely labyrinthine and complex, is nevertheless one that is endlessly fascinating.
