Is that the one with the coat hanger scene?

Very much so.

Great crime-noir flick! I've been wanting to re-watch this for awhile..

Jaime Foxx and Tom Cruise's characters where really good and honestly drove that movie. i really liked the clashing ideals and mindsets of the two.

Yeah, it's definitely not exactly the easiest film to digest. As I say, I absolutely loved it. It's one I saw at random (along with a lot of other great films) on Sky Indie back when the family used to have Sky. Pretty good channel it was and all.

^ So powerful that watching it feels like being kicked in the stomach.

In all seriousness though, terrific film. Tim Roth, as the poster there says, puts in a truly mesmerising performance in the lead role.

Do you have any idea why the critics were so divided over it? Some loved it, some loathed it. But the people seem to adore it.. Confused me that did. I felt like it was disjointed in places but definitely not a bad film.

It's just one of those films that goes for a reaction, and those are always the most polarising ones. A bit Pierrot La Fou for example (just in a less pretentiously annoying way).

That looks like a really interesting movie. Coincidentally, I've kind of seen a lot of movies with Tim Roth lately (not on purpose, though) so I'll look out for that.
