  • The producer liked the lead three actors and story but did not love the film; DeVito, Basinger and the dialogue felt cheesy.
  • The response acknowledges a clunky line, recommends a second viewing and emphasizes the period lexicon and noir influences. — Craig Horlbeck
  • Gangster Squad and Live by Night illustrate similar films that struggle; Hollywoodland is offered as a pairing.
