Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
A group of best buddies prepare themselves to dispose of a cop's naked corpse that just happens to be resting on the floor of nice guy Mackenzie Astin's (Jared Roth) apartment. Accident? Murder? Something even more sinister? It hardly matters as the cover-up only leads to more dead bodies, driving trust-fund idiot Natasha Gregson Wagner (far too convincing as a blathering bubblehead) completely loony: she starts lining up future victims with the enthusiasm of an assassin in training. That's just the first act of this darkly comic tale of murder and manipulation among a group of double-crossing pals. It's an often-clever film in a far too familiar genre of twisty, cynical, self-conscious, Tarantino-inspired thrillers. Dina Meyer is delicious as an ambitious singer and ostensible group leader who knows more than she's letting on, and Todd Field is a simmering and suspicious member of the cover-up, the only genuinely unpredictable element of the film. It's hardly original, but director Eric Bross has some fun with the story and injects enough sly black humor to make the film intriguing and entertaining to the end. --Sean Axmaker

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Better than you would expect
This is a great movie that I saw on cable and never had heard of it. It has a great storyline and lots and lots of unexpected happenings, which I love. All in all, I would say on a scale of 1-10, this is definitely at least an 8.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - victoria watch
good movie
fun, suspenseful, witty, sad, and will definetly keep you scratching your head while at the same time say i had no idea that was going to happen
the ending of the movie is definetly worth the wait


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - I never heard of that movie, tell me more...
This is one of those movies you see in the $5.50 bin at wal-mart, except it is a really good movie. This movie has a great cast and a really good original score, it blends well with the movie.

The movie starts at an airport with a delayed flight. An author is going to a book signing and sparks a conversation with someone and tells the story he wrote...Just wait 'till the end of the movie, you will be surprised!

One accidental murder leads to them disposing of the body, and then having the car towed (with the body still inside!) and then them having to kill the car shop owner to save their hides.

The ending has a crazy twist you wont guess, I swear! it is all turned around! sorry, I don't spoil great movies. :-)


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - ordinary people become murderers
well it is safe to say that I survived this movie but I didnt quite like it all that much. there were things about it that were just too blah. Dina Meyer(Starship Troopers, Johnny Mnemonic) is the hottie in this movie. Todd Field(Eyes Wide Shut, Twister) is the cool guy in this movie. Mackenzie Astin(Sean Astin's brother) is the crazy guy in this movie and Natasha Gregson Wagner(Modern Vampires, Another Day In Paradise) is the annoying one in this movie. Field has written a book called Stranger Than Fiction and he tells the tale to a man at a bar. Astin murders a gay police officer and things go downhill from there. It just spirals into twists that are far too perdictiable but some funny, like the hobo in the back of the car. The old lady had the funniest death of them all. If your a fan of any of the actors you should watch but if your not ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - DARK MYSTERY
At the start of this under appreciated little gem, we meet four typical "yuppie" characters: the lovely Dina Meyer (in one of her best roles yet); the smartly handsome Mackenzie Astin; the straightlaced teacher Todd Field; and the unusually ditzy rich girl, the absolutely fabulous Natasha Gregson Wagner. The first half of the film definitely belongs to the girls, with Wagner just a barrel of laughs. The way these murders occur seems like something out of a three stooges film, but being the schizophrenic film it is, it grows darker and darker, with some interesting plot twists and brutal killings.
The wedding scene is hilarious; Gregson's attempts to murder the nosy old lady neighbor is brilliant; wait till you see how much poison she puts in the woman's cup!
This movie entertained me and made me gasp a couple of times too. Although ... Read More
