Summary: The BEST Heist Film Ever Made!
Review: This film gets two thumbs up and even some toes! The actors were incredible. The middle was a bit draggy, but Stephen Dorff ruled this movie. His character Skip stopped at nothing to get what he wanted and this is one of Dorff's best films. Keitel and Hutton were good too. The movie is fast-paced for tough men and women who like their action and money fast! If you ever need hints on how to rob a bank or jewelry store, City of Industry is the movie for you! If you're looking for a good film to watch and kick your feet up with...be my guest. This movie was all that and a bag of chips!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: It was "aiight"
Review: When you're watching this particular film, you do notice that the movie is pretty long. That is a bad thing. However, there is enough going on so you don't just give up on it. It seemed like a pretty realistic look into the criminal world. There is no romance of crime in this flick. Stealing is bad. Murder is bad. Sure the plot is big on revenge and redemption, but our hero is pretty much just a boring criminal. Ironically, Stephen Dorff's character is more interesting. He plays a very convincing villian. Anyway, this movie isnt so bad. It's one of those saturday afternoon, late night movies that you pretty much watch alone. Does anyone like doing that? Well, if you do, you may like this movie. If you don't like watching movies alone, then don't see this movie. If you do see this movie with another person, I garauntee that person you choose to watch this movie with will end up saying, if you even finish the film, "You made me give up two hours of my life for this???"

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: City of Industry is a captivating, seedy thriller
Review: Your girlfriend won't like it, but then again, she didn't like Escape from New York. City of Industry is a treat for Keitel fans as he is at his best. With the seedy underworld of LA as the backdrop, Keitel methodically searches for the man who killed his brother. You won't get a lot of clever dialogue in this one but you will get a fun to watch Keitel and a compelling Stephen Dorff as the paranoid pyscho. If you want a modern day western with a tough guy, this one's for you. I for one, loved it.
