The overall film, writing and acting are so darn good that I watched it and then immediately started it over again.

Mamet has a special gift for drawing realistic portriats of lowlifers who are harsh but also funny, not to speak of his unique skill at contsructing tension-ridden situations; his salesmen are a far cry from Arthur Miller's Loman in Death of a Salesman.

As fierce as it is funny. Rarely does does a film sustain such a fever pitch of dramatic intensity. One of the very best of 1992.

Despite an acidic world-view, it generates a real feeling of the worth of artistic achievement and personal struggle.

Um estudo de personagens maravilhoso que se torna ainda mais eficaz graças ao forte roteiro do mestre Mamet e às performances de um elenco admirável.
