    Beautifully acted, the film is touchingly human and, thankfully, devoid of any vapid, ironic kitsch.

    A wildly entertaining detective thriller that succeeds entirely on its own terms.

    The gangster-movie plot, themes, and allusions aren't nearly as intriguing as the earnestly kitschy black-and-white wide-screen images or the mesmerizing, minimalist sound effects.

    Mostly an unfunny, rather dull affair.
