Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Unfortunately, Rosenberg directs flatly, hopping from one set piece to the next, disjointedly throwing characters of varying interest across Newman's path.

An interminable drag.

rotten:
A confusing and not very exciting private eye caper.

fresh:
Stylish, improbable, entertaining, superficial, well cast, and totally synthetic.
