Restaurateur Peter Gryszek finds himself in over his head when a mystery woman with an abusive husband arrives at his bar. Things unravel quickly for Gryszek. Things also unravel quickly for the film viewers in this low budget crime flick. With a classic neo-noir plot line the movie had promise, but promise is where it comes to an end.
The acting is bad, The direction is bad. The script is bad. It seems like the writers were just trying to fit the pieces together, They use so many dubious, far-fetched plot conveniences that it makes the story beyond unbelievable. When it's clear that the plot doesn't mesh up the writers add dialogue to help explain away the inconsistencies, the earmark of bad / lazy writing.
