Negative Positive
Title: I've only myself to blame...
Review: I should have known better. I saw the reviews, I consider De Palma a derivative hack, but, I'm such a fan of the source material and Ellroy in general, I figured "How badly could he have screwed it up?" The answer: Completely.As usual De Palma makes a pastiche of mimicking his betters and the result is a boring, incoherent mess. That's two hours I won't get back. Don't make the same mistake I did.
Is the review positive or negative?
