Title: What a Dud!!
Review: Wait, is that the sound of James Ellroy I hear, tuning in his grave? This movie sucks. It seems to have it all, plot, actors, Director, but completely misses. De Palma must have been asleep for most of the movie, the performances are appalling from actors who are capable of better.Maybe it's a paid advertisement for the cigarette industry? The only characters who don't smoke throughout are the dog and the corpse!What a waste of a great, great book.
Is the review positive or negative?
