Rating:  - Not very good
There are many weak moments here, in writing, acting and directing. At first the script is decent and the actors ok, but the director was bringing nothing to the table. Then the writing and acting start to falter, but the director begins warming to his task (maybe realizing this film has NO HEART) and tries to spice things up with a few nice shots and starts blocking scenes more wisely. By the end, however, the mish-mash nature of it all took me nowhere.

Rating:  - No Honor Among These Thieves
"Montana," is an entertaining and refreshingly different type of crime drama. I personally liked this film.

Rating: - You gotta love it
It is easy to see why this movie has with DVD reached cult status. It is John Woo perfect on the conflict between loyalty and integrity, with only two-thirds of the blood. "I love bananas because they have no bones and I hate peaches, because they have stones" - you gotta love it.
Rating: - What about the soundtrack?
I wish if someone could help me telling me the names of the groups (or musicians) who make the soundtrack of this movie, because I found it real great.
Thank you.
