After having read interesting reviews on this movie, I decided to give it a shot. After all I think Steve Buscemi is funny and its always interesting to see how actors do as directors.
However, I didn't recognise any of the reviews that I had read; why was everyone so enthousiastic?
None of the characters is described in detail, the relationship Earl and Ron is one big questionmark to me, because there is no advantage for Earl in protecting Ron, except that he is risking his reputation.
Mickey Rourke is interesting though, but Danny Trejo is getting annoying in his endless role of prison bad guy. And why is everyone in Earl's gang "nice"??? Why don't they rape and kill? And why is his gang excluded from racial segregation (at one point Earl points out one of "his" black butchers)?
When the credits came on, I felt completely tricked... did I miss something or is this movie just a little too boring?
