Title: Snake Eyes
Review: A truly awful movie.Other than a great performance by Hoffman - he relies more on his physical presence than on the script's ludicrous words to establish his character - this film resembles a run of the mill Canadian M.O.W. Hackneyed script, static direction and - with the exception of Hoffman - brutal acting.In one scene, a cop establishes his character by complimenting another cop on his choice in donuts. In another cliched scene, a hooker arrives at Mahowny's room wearing nothing but a fur coat.The cliches mount and all interest in the psychology of Mahowny and his downward spiral disappear.Save yourself the money and buy "Stung" the book that this disaster was based upon.
