This film is based on a true story and its well acted but I did feel that this film could have been edited a little more tightly as it seems to drag at certain spots. In the middle of the film they're suppose to be laying low and they're are a lot of slow scenes where nothing happens at all. The overall look and mood of the film is impressive as it reminded me a little of "Traffic" and "Reservoir Dogs" with some good dialogue written in the script. Bloody, sweaty and dirty with lots of sex its definitely not a film for the prudish. I thought the last 20 minutes was over the top and not really reflective of what the film really is about. Its like "We'll put in a big gunfight at the end to make it more exciting" when the film really is more about two gay robbers and one is suffering a mental breakdown. This interesting character study had become "The Wild Bunch". I thought it was an interesting enough film but these lapses hurt the overall product.
