Kaye, a Brit who shoots the film with familiar pizazz (low-angle shots, portentous slo-mo, some black-and-white scenes), made his name directing TV commercials in Europe. What's not clear is the product on sale here. It seems to be brotherhood among the races. But David McKenna's script is either cunningly ambiguous or desperately muddled. In racially torn Venice Beach, Calif., the neo-Nazis are pathetic lowlifes, crying out for our contempt. And of course Nazism is a thug ideology. Yet much of the film's violence is committed by blacks; most of the victims...

...honors the familiar tropes of hombre films, from the requisite convenience-store holdup and multiple murder to a strident Ennio Morricone score (with the banshee harmonica from his Sergio Leone westerns).

Stone swathes all this menace in his patented white-hot style: slo-mo, echoing voices, flashbacks that flick like lightning, cartoon sound effects (when the Mustang is mentioned, you'll hear a horse whinny).
