...film makes excellent use of splashes of color to break up the black-and-white, and little things like a woman’s blonde hair, a hooker’s green or blue eyes, and Dwight??s bright red sneakers give eye-catching excitement to each frame. The blood is particularly colorful, and appears in red, chocolate-syrupy black, and even tempera-paint white...

Watching the characters “kill their way to the truth” in this film is like pushing Dwight??s car the last half mile of its trip. Cinematic violence can be a high-octane but painfully inefficient fuel, and viewers not thrilled by gore may find their patience breaking down before the trip’s conclusion...
