| Plot: | John Herzfeld deftly welds together a multitude of subplots-- a loser hitman and a cool assassin involved in an insurance scam; a washed-up director, turned suicidal, if only he had someone to care for his beloved dog; a snooty art dealer, wracked by kidney stones, cared for by his devoted assistant; a grungy deranged vice cop, now partnered with a fresh-faced rookie; and two beautiful and jealous women entangled in their deadly scheme--into a spoof of the crime thriller genre. |

Quotes

Allan Hopper: How can you take this loser's word? You can't believe him! Teddy Peppers: I'll take his word over yours. It's been my experience, more often than not, that a loser has more honor than a winner. Lee Woods: You have one minute to decide the rest of your life. Detective Creighton: I know we're Valley detectives so we're not all that bright, but how stupid does he think we are? Dosmo Pizzo: You better tell him I'm not fucking around, Susan. Susan Parish: He's not fucking around. Allan Hopper: You know, I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth. I was raised in a trailer park. My father abandoned us, and my mother couldn't even afford to send us to college. Now, I may be an asshole, but I've worked hard to become one. Wes Taylor: Alvin, can I ask you a question? Alvin Strayer: I hate it when people ask if they can ask a question. Just ask it! Alvin Strayer: Fuckin' Hack! |
