Good fun

I rented this mainly because I like Jennifer Connelly and she does look radiant (except when she plays dead). However, Nick Nolte has a great role as leader of a squad of LA detectives in the 1950s, who sorts out an FBI man in great style in one scene. Indeed there are several good scenes (and much atmospheric smoking) and even though some of the dialogue is difficult to hear the atmosphere is good and it's quite a satisfying film.
