Underated Pulp Fiction Clone.

Of all of the "Pulp Fiction" rip-offs that came out in the mid 90s, this one is the best. Unlike most of the others, this really only dealt with one main story instead of trying to intertwine several stories like "Pulp" and failing horribly. This one is like "Pulp" in flavor, not through story telling gymnastics. It is a good solid story about good solid characters. Andy Garcia is great. Why is this guy not in more leading roles? Steve Buscemi is great as always. (Christopher Walken... 'nuff said!) Great ending for a character doomed by his bumbling idiot friends. I personally would have done something a bit different with the title. I like the idea, but it is too "clunky" (a line used in the movie). I think simply "Dead in Denver" or even "Denver When You're Dead" Anyway, my crappy little 2 cents. I really enjoy this film and would recommend it to anyone.
