B-movie as country-and-western ballad, seventy-three minutes of total involvement followed by oblivion: except for one's lingering uneasiness about unlit corners and warehouses near the river.

[Has] Mann's sense of coiled violence, just waiting to unload.

The story is standard urban crime stuff, but the director throws in a treasure trove of flourishes.

Nicely done crime thriller, with some great visual set pieces.
