I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
