Lessons from Edmond: If you want a good time in the city, make sure you have plenty of cash and are willing to spend it. Don't gamble on the streets. Pawn shops are a rip off. Don't murder people with an easily-traceable knife. Don't harass old women on the subway... or you'll end up in prison with a large black man looking for "company". The End.

This class thriller will turn off most viewers with its unflinching and unjudging eye, but it's angry, challenging and potently presented and it harkens the dark side in all of us. William H. Macy is an odd, but perfect choice as the main character. Final Grade: B

Macy as the title character, I had to check it out, and although the screenplay was originally written in the early-1980s, I think this film is still ahead of its time and many people, including myself, don't know what to think about it. Like all of his work, the dialogue in the movie is some of the most brilliant and …

A steaming pile of Edmond

What a steaming pile of shit this was. I thought thrillers were supposed to be thrilling but this was just boring. The only thing that remotely saves this film is the acting done by William H Macey but there is only so much an actor can do with bad writing. Putting Mena Suvari, Denise Richards, Bokeem Woodbine and Julia Stiles names on the cover of this film is also very miss-leading as they are hardly in it. Each actress only get a few minutes of screen time this is forgotten by the movie. The movie also just kind of leaves out a huge plot point in how Edmond is caught for the murder. Seriously how did they know. I know his DNA was on her but that takes longer then a coupke hours to match up. He didn't know the girl for more then a couple hours and yet they tied him to her? Also if they …
