This is one of crime writer James Ellroy's favorite movies

I used to hear people refer to "B-Movies" (low-budget) with derision, like they were somehow inherently inferior due to their funding. This movie is a good example of decent acting, a tight script and a perennially interesting story line.

It's also proof that you don't need a $50+ million dollar budget, tons of green-screen and CGI effects to make a great, and entertaining movie.

I'm glad to know that and not surprised. There really isn't a wasted moment.

it is a hgood movie
