Featured review
This cast contributed everything they had to this work, the story line is awesome, and the execution is purely entertaining. So what went wrong? As slick as this stylish detective/thriller is, it lacks an ending which denotes the wit and keen intellect throughout. In other words, the ending was weak enough to throw off this whole work.
Jamie Lee Curtis, nor any of her cast mates represents the problem. The problem was in the writing, however, this is still quite compelling, and dramatizes an interesting story, which has the ability to pull you in and build some awesome suspense.
All in all, although it fails to deliver satisfactorily in the end, the process getting you there is quite entertaining.
It rates a 6.8/10 from...

Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaJamie Lee Curtis revealed that the original script asked her to do the gunfight scene au naturel. "It was written as a nude scene, but I said no way was I going to run around with a gun in my hand in the nude. Everyone would be watching my breasts flopping around instead of watching the scene," Curtis said.
- GoofsMegan's suspension hinges on the fact that the robber's gun wasn't found and the main witness, the cashier, provides an unclear statement even though the gun is right in his face. But at least two other people - the old woman in line after him and another male customer - were up close during and after the confrontation.

Eugene Hunt: Death is the best kick of all. That's why they save it for last.
