It's a derivative setup, and the entire film's turn of events is just as unoriginal, but taken at face value as a thriller, it works.

I'm a Vincent Gallo fan.

Both the protagonists and the film are doomed from the start, in this vulgar and mindless action flick.

Pulp Fiction it's not, and to call it Tarantino-esque would be overdoing it. Still, it's a fun enough ride, especially with a batshit crazy Kiefer Sutherland.

Not bad. Any point eluded me but some character study mixed with swearing and gratuitous violence and product placement believe it or not made for a fairly entertaining movie with definite movies and some actors in different-than-usual roles.
