Goodbye Lover (1999)


Neo-noir thriller starring the usual suspects:  Lust, Greed, Jealousy,
and Betrayal.  Plus Patricia Arquette, Dermot Mulroney, Ellen DeGeneres,
Mary-Louise Parker, and ol' Don Johnson.  Longish and over-complicated
in the Plot Department, but also sexy, stylish, at times surreal, and
often side-splitting.  Ellen is a stitch as The Cop and there's a grand
SOUND OF MUSIC-quoting score by John Ottman.  Roland Joffe directs from 
a script by Ron Peer, Joel Cohen (not Coen), and Alec Sokolow.  (Rated
"R"//102 min.)

Grade: B-
