Keanu Reeves must have been living in some limbo between his Bill & Ted's loser persona and the Speed/Matrix action hero ... because his pseudo-macho presence here is soooooo annoying. And the main problem is, his see-through presence is there from the film's very first scene to endure. Kathryn Bigelow's male-oriented buddy movie, with its incredible cinematography and gradual villain development, must have been a giant step forward in the crime genre for its own time - but three decades later, the movie is unable to pack a demonstrable punch, and any redeeming chance is ruined by clammy performances.
