Tony Scott directs Keira Knightley, Mickey Rourke and Edgar Ramirez in this true crime thriller based on the real life of Domino Harvey, an English socialite turned unlikely East Coast bounty hunter.

You can definitely tell what attracted Scott to his subject. Yet he goes for his most frenetic, garish setting of the house style he experimented with after Man On Fire. And I have a lot of time for Knightley but in 2005 she wasn’t quite the movie star she is now. At this early stage of her career, posh cut glass accent aside, she feels miscast. The plot is a crime caper like True Romance but darting back and forth chronologically like a subpar Tarantino rip-off. There is decent stuff here (Rourke for one) just not enough of it.
