Kritiken (1)
A neo-noir that tries to mislead the audience. The storyline with the perpetrator is quickly uncovered by astute viewers (Jigsaw pulling the drawer at the dean's office isn’t there for nothing), and besides the fact that Pullman’s character funds not only in his wallet, it has no bearing on the following plot. The protagonist subsequently salts the area where antlers grow multiple times, only to then, quite Klingon-like and as part of an interesting departure from genre conventions, deny the fatal bitch even a few moments of glory. Minor plus points for Nicole Kidman's backside (if it was hers), the tars in small roles (the young Paltrow, the outdoorsy George C. Scott), and Baldwin’s pretentious surgeon’s take on “divinity.”
