The Hard Word (2002)
4/10
A scene or two too far
8 June 2002
This film started off so great, although I couldn't figure out if Rachel Griffiths was supposed to look sexy or not. It was shaping up really nicely when suddenly it went all Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrelsish. So I was settling for that, then right at the end (or really what should have been beyond the final scene), there was a scene or two that added nothing. In fact they detracted. The joke just brought the quality of the movie down, and freeze-frame of cool-looking people in sunglasses was unoriginal and irrelevant, even incongruous. I did like the male performances though.
