Anakin W Jan 15, 2019 If you like Larry Bishop films, you'll like this. His movies have a distinct flavour about them that either works for you or doesn't. Personally I find it refreshing - the movies don't have that smug production polish that the MCU is churning out...they feel more grindhouse-esque, like early Robert Rodriguez. They make their own rules, they don't follow a formula, they are their own masters. Personally, I like anything with Jeff Goldblum in it, especially when he's playing something other than his standard Jewish Hugh Grant role. Everyone in this is amazing. Gabriel Byrne is brilliant as Bubba Ben London. Dreyfuss as the enigmatic and dangerous Vic. Barkin as the voracious Rita. Even Bishop is brilliantly over the top. I don't think of this as a gangster movie however. It's rooted in the world of nightclubs and gangsters, but it's limited to only a couple of sets, so don't go in thinking street battles with tommy guns out of Packard saloons. It's all about the characters, the dialogue, and the music. Thanks Larry, this is sublime. Take that 17% from the enlightened critic overlords as an endorsement. See more

George W May 3, 2018 I guess I have a higher opinion of this movie than the critics. Personally, I saw Vic's world as a place inside Vic's schitzophrenic mind, and the main people representing different aspects of his psyche; Ben as his "Brass Balls", Mickey as his wit and reactiveness, etc... And the whole thing is happening in Vic's head while he is actually still in the Asylum. See more
