Just got through seeing this film on DVD...very competent, taut, film about the concept of New Celebrity Culture and murder.Nothing gratuitous, everything is aimed at making a point, which it does to great results.
This is the first film that Kelsey Grammer uses his acting noodle on, and to great effect and positive results. I thought he was finished with that "Down Periscope" piece of crap he was in. This usual piece of crap is what film is these days...disposable and easily forgettable unless it's resurrected on Tv.
He genuinely has a career in films if he wants one...but it takes alot of work, and not just sliding or coasting with a coy, Jack Benny impersonation, like he does every week on "Frasier". For a generation who doesn't know Jack Benny that may be well and good...but someone is going to get wise soon. For Kelsey it's either mounds of money on Tv or a really good film career. I think he will chose Tv.
