DonQ2001 score = 70
Great acting, specially by Givanni, I had no idea he was this good, it
reminded me of the acting style of the 40's and 50's when the actors
almost didn't do anything but being there and deliver their line with
weight... he's very, very good, extremely relaxed... he has a future. Now,
the movie could've done ok without the F word being tossed out like every
2.4 seconds. The plot itself would've done it by itself. Get a Thesaurus
for the script writer for the next movie. Very hip and intriguing. Good
movie.

score = 40
Story and acting was OK, but the music and jerky film editing was very
annoying.

score = 100
God, Larry must be a middle-aged bean counter who cannot appreciate good
film making by an up-and-coming writer/director. The 'jerky film editing'
and great choice of music are one of the points that make this movie
great. Additionally, the acting is superb; Givanni Ribisi 'lives' his
part. The storyline is original and intruiging. This one is going on my
shelf.
