6ixtynin9 (1999)

Blah attempt at neo-noir from Thailand is, aside from the subtitles, indistinguishable from any number of crime thrillers that surfaced in Tarantino's Wake. Not nearly as clever or cool as it believes itself to be; even worse, its sole interesting idea (the tired 'criminal-as-businessman' cliche gets a bit of a twist) gets mostly ignored. There's one bit of business (the obscene telephone caller) that has a nice payoff, but otherwise I have to profess ignorance as to what makes Rosenbaum think this is so damn special.

Grade: C
