Clay Pigeons (1998)
5/10
You Shoot All the Husbands, and I'll Stab All the Wives
1 October 1998
This is a mean little almost-neo-noir movie. Wickedly fun. Vince Vaughn's Lester Long is irresistible. Janeane Garofalo -- fabulous as always. (Can we call this woman "luminous" rather than all the mediocre new "It"-girl actresses?) Their scene together is quite possibly the best of the film. Great music that fit beautifully with the overall atmosphere of the film, too. However, the end is a huge disappointment. Someone should have told David Dobkin to scrap the test audiences' annoying penchant for neatly wrapped up endings, and to go with his instincts. All around, a great two hours in the theatre.
