User Reviews

A very under-appreciated work of art

On a superficial level it may lack the cliches that many have come to expect from the genre. But it has layers of subtlety and meaning that others lack. I'd give it a 10 just for the cinematography. Notice the play of colour and shadow as the protagonist descends into the dark world of treachery and moral compromise. This is a story of biblical profundity.
