It's better than most critics led me to believe. A lot of
credit has to go to John Ridley, a hardboiled writer I think
is doing some great work. He wrote the script based on his
book STRAY DOGS. His most recent ones: LOVE IS A RACKET and
EVERYBODY SMOKES IN HELL. Funny, violent, nice characters.
Reminds me of Jim Thompson, but not country. These two are
set in LA.
