It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Blistering performances.

I honestly thought this was made in the mid 1990's based on what i assumed the budget was. But I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. The movie starts out as you would expect, with a murder scene and a young detective. The beginning is pretty slow and I really had to force myself to pay attention, but I'm glad I stuck with it. Much of the movie is about the relationship between the veteran detective and his daughter, but if you listen and pay attention, this is a major part of the plot. If you pay attention to the veteran detective's odd sayings, the movie becomes very enjoyable. There are no mention of doors being passed until the closing monologue, which, in my opinion, just adds to the movie.

We have a star in the making in gorgeous Kathryn Avery Hansen who exudes sensuality as Laura in every frame in which she's featured. The story itself is basically an interesting rehash on serial killer movies wherein our cop heroes Chris Malloy (played by Matthew Prater) and Murphy MacCasey (played by co-writer Mark Colson) are hunting a shadowy unknown murderer who always manages to stay one step ahead of his pursuers and obviously has some sort of vendetta (a semi-homage to V for Vendetta in the "revelation") against the veteran detective.The movie had appropriate moodiness in the musical selections, great atmosphere and an interesting storyline which kept me interested until the very end, but the frayed loose ends left hanging by the twisted finale took a full 2 points off my rating. Are we supposed to believe Malloy was the serial killer or that his murderous father is still roaming the dark alleys looking for more victims? If it was indeed young Malloy, how did he have physical confrontations with the killer? There are many more unanswered questions but those alone really spoiled it for me. This could have been a great movie if they had only taken an extra minute or two to remove the ambiguity.

This is not one of the best thrillers I have ever seen but it certainly is - by far - NOT the worst. There are times when the slowness of it tested my patience. I did find that the script writing was well enough done to capture and maintain my interest to the end. At times the delivery of dialogue was a bit stilted. While the acting was more than a tad weak - again it was by far superior to MOST low budget films.The two central characters played off well against each other and lent an intriguing dynamic to the story. The younger cop was determined to work with the well-regarded older cop who has more than earned his reputation. On a very basic level, the plot is simplistic yet plays out well to a disturbing, and twisted, conclusion.

I disagree with the prior posting of bad on this movie.If you were not paying attention then you most likely would not enjoy the movie,although it would be pretty hard not to be interested at all in this movie PASSED THE DOOR OF DARKNESS,it contained one of the most well thought out mysteries of all,MURDER SUICIDES, the pain of life and LOVE and each persons way of dealing with personal demons in their life. This movie is a lesson we should all take notice of, for it has far reaching arms that touch all of us in life.And if all you do is watch a movie to judge it then you should not be watching any movie at all for they all are written by people with a message,miss the message and pay the consequence,of not knowing more to life than you know!!!
