Tancredo's version of Dodd's Irish bar is anywhere there are guns. In two days in Iowa, he hits up two shooting ranges. His speech is riddled with self-interruption, his anti-immigration venom prefaced by endless apologia about how this isn't about race, guys, seriously.

His tone of impish hell-raising seems out of place amid all the agonizing analysands - Peter-Spider, Flint-Sandman and Harry-Goblin - seeking to purge their inner demons, receive absolution for their sins. In this very serious movie, only Grace and Raimi regular Bruce Campbell...
...latter is especially problematic—it’s a friend who is hell-bent on killing Parker, in order to avenge his father’s death. Our boy’s got a lot on his plate.
