Although the Tarantino influences are clear to see, this matt-black trailer trash thriller is an impressively nasty treat. Gil Bellows is the nice-ish convenience store robber who is forced to go on the run with his devoted girlfriend (an electric early showing from Renee Zellweger) after a raid goes horribly wrong. The body count continues to multiply as they are pursued by Bellows's old partner in crime (Rory Cochrane) and two psycho debt collectors, along with massed ranks of law enforcement. CM Talkington's direction is hip and amoral and the performances uniformly good, particularly horror icon Jeffrey (Re-Animator) Combs's deranged killer and Peter Fonda's voice-boxed drugs casualty.

Compared to some of Renee Zelwegger's later films like Cold Mountain and Jerry Maguire, this is a bit of a shock. As a simple crime rampage film/romance it competes with the likes of Badlands, and of course it's not really as good.
Watty Watts and Starlene Cleatham are the lovers who're forced to head for the border when Watts gets involved in a convenience-store hold-up that goes wrong.
The film is pretty flimsy and, although not a violent as some later crime films, it's certainly not a pleasant viewing experience on any level. -
