Viewing Notes

Given the provocative premise and imagery (naked mannequins!) you’d expect this film to be a little more, um, provocative. Like other krimis it has a few of the necessary elements but never takes it too far. Totally watchable but you keep hoping it’s gonna get gruesome or explicit yet it never does.

There’s a big shootout between the cops and gangsters that is almost played as a Benny Hill segment. It’s weird.
