Customer Reviews

Great acting and a great story!
All the characters are SO believable and this is such a fun film to watch everyone and their problems. Jim Belushi also plays a casino manager and his role, like everyone else's, is just getting thru life the best he can. The ending is rather sci-fi, and that may be a slight annoyance to those who want everything to end in a pat, black-and-white sort of way. I absolutely loved the ending; it was very fitting. I have waited YEARS for this to be released on DVD in the US...and I'm still waiting. Fortunately, I bought it on Laser Disc (remember those!) when it was first released. (Locale note: although set in Las Vegas, some of the locations are in the San Fernando Valley in California...same place(s) where Pulp Fiction was also filmed). Won't give away which locales are in the SFV, because it is fun to believe it is all in Vegas and I don't want to spoil it for anyone.
