One of the biggest flops of 1988, Blake Edwards' Sunset is highly uneven, but gorgeous period production values and the easy-going charm of Garner and Willis save it.

Garner's a great Earp (see "Hour of the Gun") but this witless movie trashes not one but two great Western legends.

Top CriticIt's a plot that unravels on its own, without characters, without anything, not even a point of view. It's a zombie.

Ultimately, Sunset plays like deluxe dinner theater fare. It's a diversion to take along with your after-meal coffee and dessert.

A tale that is not quite a comedy, or a murder mystery, or a crime thriller, or an expose of Hollywood slime, but manages to make half-hearted stabs in all these directions.

Half of the movie wants to be cheerful, and the other half seems morbid and disenchanted.
