This is a truly bizarre film, but Val Kilmer is good enough in it for me to forgive him that slab of fecal matter entitled "The Saint." In my youth I touched the middle-class periphery of the drug world, and my experience says that the characters here are very true. It's quite violent, with not many chuckles to break the tension, but I found the story development and conclusion to be quite satisfactory, and would recommend this film to anyone who's prepared for a look at a decidedly dark way of life. Read a story synopsis before viewing, and don't rent it when grandma stays over for the weekend. Many scenes will be disturbing to a sensitive nature.
