The Black Dahlia -A

Holy Smokers! Again with Josh Harnett, Aaron Eckhart, Hilary Swank, Scarlett Johanssen, and Marlboros. They obviously tried to film this like this like a 1940's murder mystery. Heard mixed reviews but go in empty minded. They could have made it shorter (2 hr running time). There is tons of dialogue, not a lot of action. They saved all the who done it for the very end and then....can't say it the way i want or it will give it away. They totally did rip off a famous black and white film to tie up the ending, though. The thing with the smoking! Every scene you could predict who would have dialogue because they would light up. After a while I have to think that they took it over the edge on purpose and made it an inside joke to have a character smoking all the time! My lungs hurt after watching this movie. 3 non filter ciggies out of 5.
