I loved the disjointed feel to this movie. It somehow had the feel of a silent movie, with an overlay of dialogue. There may not have been anything brilliant in the story, but it did a great job of catching the feel of the events.

i thought this was well brilliant not what i expected at all. i only got it out cos of robert denero. it may be low budget but its wicked
