" Thriller that could be seen as a dark cousin to "Fargo" but without that film's dry humor. Perfect brother-team of Bill Paxton and Billy Bob Thornton and a perfect cameo appearance by Gary Cole. I love the direction by Sam Raimi and the creepy music too. "

"Silloin kun on yksinkertainen suunnitelma, mikään ei voi mennä pieleen. Jostain syystä kaikki menee silti pieleen. Billy Bob tekee hyvän roolin vammaisena, eikä se kaima-Paxton sen huonommin vedä.
