Summary: 4 Stars
Mmmm...feel the burn baby. Don't try to fight it...just breathe it in...inhale through nose, exhale through the mouth. It burns at first...but it will all soon pass as you get folded around in that blanket of white-hot light. Feel the pounding 'tween your ears? Million thoughts racing in your mind...remembering childhood, your mum, your dad...Christ, your mum...no, no tears today...don't give them the satisfacation. But they come anyway. Kind of the effect of the gas fella, sorry. Twisting back and forth don't help any. So just relax, ride it. It'll be over soon...and all this a distant memory...fading fast.
So goes the way of the murderer. For good reason too. Did she do it? Who the heck cares. Jury of her peers said so, so that's good enough for me. Tick, tock, tick, tock, let the midnight hour come with no phone call from Gov. In the meantime, put the needle on the record and dig that groove. Sax never sounded so sweet than it did behind bars. Except maybe when you listen to it after feeling the other burn of that *other* needle having just left your vein. Mmmmm, sweet tranquility.
The movie itself isn't that great. Dated and plagued by all the over-acting that plagued movies of this decade/generation. But, as some others have mentioned, it is absolutely saved by the soundtrack. Do yourself a favor and just get the soundtrack and nothing else. Then, turn out the lights, close the curtains, wait for rain, and listen. You'll thank yourself.
