Loved It

I loved this movie. It's basically the story of a girl, a gun, and the courage she must find in order to use it.

The thing that elevates this out of your typical small crime drama are the originality of the characters and the direction they push the story. Don't get me wrong, you get your barfights, your shower scenes, your double-crossings -- they just don't happen in the fashion you think they will. All these characters have issues that are compelling and that service the plot in unexpected ways. I swear there are scenes where two characters are laying in bed where you don't know if they are going to have sex or shoot each other. Also it is a pleasant surprise as the movie progresses that even the most simple characters are more than they seem.

Milla is amazing, Dorff gives a gem of a performance, and writer/director Lennon coaxes some great moments out of even the most simple, quiet scenes. Great flick.
