It's rated only a 4.6, but in my opinion, it's better than that. It's not great, but I love film noir and this was a pretty good one. I like how John Travolta narrated throughout the movie, like a classic film noir. I liked the steamy, Southern atmosphere and the plot twists & turns. It had a star-studded cast and they all did a very good job. I liked that John Travolta's real life daughter had a role in this movie and the scenes between the two of them were very sweet & tender. I liked the slow, sensual pace of the movie, which is realistic for us Southerners. We don't rush for anything. Lol And I loved the music in the film, especially that seductive trumpet tune which played during the end credits. This movie just oozed steamy, Southern flavor and the acting was good by all involved. Like I said, not great, but if you like classic film noir with a sultry Southern feeling (I certainly do) then you'll like this film. Give it a try, who knows? You might love it as much as I did. I gave it a 6, but would've given it a 6.5 if I could have.
