Review of Romeo Is Bleeding

This is by far the worst film I've seen Gary Oldman in. Sure, he is good, but the film itself stinks. There is a difference between a nicely convoluted noir plot and an illogical mess. "Romeo is Bleeding" strives for the former and ends up as the latter. Sure, it's unusual (legs around head driving scene), but scarcely is there any motivation for the characters to do what they do, and so we (or I) lose interest. It could have been so much more, given the cast and plot. As it is, it's horrid.
