Ray is running for sheriff of a small western town. One night he discovers a dead Indian carrying $500,000 cash. Realizing that if he solves this mystery single-handedly, it will assure his position as sheriff, Ray takes the money, setting out to find the murderer. But before long he's in over his head: working undercover, meeting with dangerous criminals, and caught up in a covert FBI operation. (Verleiher-Text)

Okay, let's check it off. Willem Dafoe has nothing to work with - check, Mickey Rourke, chewing like a herbivore, has nothing to work with - check, and Elizabeth Mastrantonio is as far from a sexy femme fatale as a politician is from a truthful person. It starts off nicely enough, though, but after ten minutes you know that the whole thing is a beautiful example of the director's, or rather the screenwriter's, inability to tell a story in any meaningful way, to somehow engage and draw you into the plot. The plot is something you don’t give a fuck about, and towards the end, after the "cruel" revelation and the nonsensical twist, logic gave itself half a pack of rohypnol. And you might take some molly to get the "experience" going.
