Review of Dark Streets (2008) by Roger Ebert for Chicago Sun-Times — 03 Aug 2016
The kind of film you can appreciate as an object, but not as a story. It's a lovingly souped-up incarnation of the film-noir look, contains well-staged and performed musical numbers, and has a lot of cigarettes, tough tootsies, bad guys and shadows.
What it doesn't have is a story that pulls us along, or a hero who seems as compelling as some of the supporting characters.
