After wrecking his car, author Paul Sheldon (James Caan) ends up immobilized and at the mercy of his "number one fan" Annie Wilkes (Kathy Bates). Bates is brilliant in what might be the best adaptation of a Stephen King novel ever. I would highly recommend this film to anyone who likes suspense, it is thoroughly enjoyable.

If you like movies with lots of shooting and blood, horrible dialog, and even worse acting, then "Once Upon a Time in Mexico" was made for you. The attempts at dark humor are not funny & the storyline is silly. This film has to be a serious contender for the worst film of 2003.

This film seems to capture all the same old tired elements of so many past action films. Smarmy desk jockey captain, grizzled veteran cop, and hot shot young rookie. Unfortunately the characters are all flat and the dialog boring. Though there is some good action in this film, it just misses the target entirely.
