GUENOT PHILIPPE
I expected a corny new age crime flick, in the kind of the thousands we watch since fifteen years now, in the Tarantino and Coen Bros style, with humour and all the crap stories that go with...The tale is sometimes weird, with some subplots - I mean characters I don't exactly get what they are doing here. But that doesn't bother me that much. The story reminds me RIFIFI and also a little THINGS TO DO IN DENVER WHEN YOU'RE DEAD. The lead characters are interesting, for this kind of small film I mean. The ending is disappointing, but, again, this doesn't spoil the quality of this little gem that, I guess, every body has already forgotten. Pure grade B movie, without ambition. And that is just what I like in it. I know, I am a little bizarre myself. My tastes are not every one's.

The movie does have a nice compelling B-movie flair to it. It works on many levels (especially if you like the movies this was obviously inspired by), but mostly in single parts. Put together something seems to be missing to make this stand out. But you can see that the guys who made this might be up to something. So as another reviewer also stated, good things will probably are ahead of us.The actors here are doing the best they can, but a real connection seems to be missing for the viewer. While the ideas themselves are well thought of, the piecing together of those ideas, might have been a bit faster than it should've been.

A heist movie that has some style but the disjointed editing and the unbelievable premise smear the situation so that the view is overcast and the place is overly populated. The setting is just not believable and is an imposing impediment. Some quirky characters and visual gymnastics are a treat, but there is some superficial spoiling. There probably are a few to many psyches on display here that in the final analysis it's like a diagnosis dialed back from a 1-900 psychologist. This has pieces of talent at work and some artistic flair. However, while the initial viewing is visceral enough, the complete work will eventually melt away like ice on a windshield.A good effort from a low-budget crew and a feeling of better things to come.

This is really one cool movie, granted I found it a little slow at the beginning but I quickly got drawn into the characters and their lives, it's refreshing to watch a film today that isn't full of MTV quick cuts and jerky camera work. I thought the story was really well written with lots of unexpected twists & turns coupled with a few surprises that I didn't see coming.I really liked the music and the director Phillip Guzman did a great job overall. Love Val Kilmer. I totally loved the feel & texture of this movie, the cold & the snow really added to the atmosphere. Cool stuff.
