Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
Is Jack, who is patterned on a real-life character, sociopathic or just plain clueless? Gallo doesn't seem to care. He cares about parading before us lowlifes living the high life.

I never got the feeling Gallo and company figured out how to compress and focus their stories.

rotten:
Mr. Gallo, for his part, is content to decorate a fairly conventional, intermittently entertaining crime chronicle with a bit of skin and a soupcon of pop sociology. There must be other ways to learn about pornography on the Internet.

Kind of a mess.

fresh:
This very well-acted, often amusing and dirty-minded hard-R film still stands out in a sea of market-driven blandness.
