Peter Berg Is One Sick, Twisted Writer-Director, Thank God!
29 November 1998
This is a great film if you're not squeamish or can hold off getting upset about moral implications until the picture is over. Overall, it's a surprisingly moral picture about amoral characters who choose murder as a matter of course when it's the only way to get what they want. The acting is appropriately over the top, with special honors to Jeremy Piven as the man who accidentally kills the stripper at his friend's bachelor party and Cameron Diaz as the psycho bride. And of course, Peter Berg deserves special credit for a fast-moving, outrageously dark, yet funny look at upwardly mobile young adults whose incomes and opportunities outstrip their morality at every step.
