But it's in the running. The only thing I can think of that would justify Mailer's train wreck of a self-parody is that his ego forces him to take everything he writes, etc. Seriously.
I must give credit where it's due. Some of the location shots around P-town are gorgeous and evocative. Then of course Mailer, being Mailer, had to superimpose his awful mess on them. I'd be curious for a brief moment how much Mailer had to pay to produce this miserable vanity project. Golan and Globus were notorious for putting out garbage, but Coppola?
Also, praise for the one strong performance: Ryan O'Neal's beautiful dog. Too bad it ended so abruptly, and that the dog wasn't real!

So many negative reviews - why I wondered. Then it sunk in. Many viewers misunderstood the premise. This film was adapted from a graphic novel series, basically adult comic books. Don't compare it to The Spy who Came in from the Cold; instead think Sin City.
It's obviously a vehicle for Charlize Theron, and it works. Whenever she's in a scene (which is almost every scene), it's impossible to take your eyes off her. I have one question: When she emerges from the ice bath in the beginning and we see her looking at her reflection, how did they manage the lighting & camera to make her eyes look almost reptilian?
