Comments:
Basically
its Steve Martin in a modern film noir, only in color.
If you were wondering about Helen Bonham Carter's
performance in fight Club, here it is again. It sags
a bit at times, never really builds momentum. Acting
was great, story is good, definitely worth seeing,
but not as good as it could have been. Interesting
Kevin bacon turn as an actor researching a film. Best
quote: "this isn't a movie, it's real life."
