Let me start off with the one sole minor point of the movie, the story is pathetic, it's standard and I saw it a hundred times before. The ending repaired it a bit, but it can't take away the damage. The rest... VERY VERY nice, the acting exceeds my most optimistic expectations, these actors (especially Michael Wincott) show they really can do more than low-budget movies. Michael Wincott even proofs to be a more than average cinema worth actor, his acting is really one of the strongest points this movie has to offer, but it has way more, well-directed, very well matching scenery (even better when you consider that this movie is low-budget, something it most certainly doesn't show) and a dialogue that makes you feel warm.
If you like gangster movies this is your thing. I didn't mind the familiar story and actually regret this movie skipping cinema and the movie has more than average qualities which will most certainly appeal to most movie viewers.
