3 stars (Good Enough) Can be forgiven the high body count as it somehow seems to add to the entertainment. The film has some nice comedic touches amongst the suspense. Soundtrack is only used periodically but appropriately. ~Tubbs
4 stars (Very Good) Subtract a star if you don't swoon for grainy late night films. I love the score, and the cartoonishly evil gang. Some great camera shots and mood-building atmosphere in spades, all packaged in a taught 90 minutes. Loved it. ~Pop&Coffee
4 stars (Very Good) ~Wyatt Earp
