Ambiguous sentence near the start
[edit]"It tells a story about a seductive woman and ruthless killer who steals a suitcase of $60,000." This suggests that there are two people involved: 1) the seductive woman, and 2) the ruthless killer, who both steal the money. But having seen the movie it is clear that what was meant was that the seductive woman is also a ruthless killer, and she steals the money. Rather than re-writing the sentence as "It tells a story about a seductive ruthless killer woman who steals a suitcase of $60,000" it is better to write: "It tells the story of a ruthless femme-fatale who steals a suitcase of $60,000". Not all femme-fatales are ruthless, so that qualification is needed. 92.3.72.240 (talk) 09:44, 16 May 2018 (UTC)
- The article needs quite a bit of re-writing. For instance: "A shifty and assertive man appears at the Palmer apartment while Alan is at work, claiming to be an insurance investigator. Danny Fuller gets called on his ruse..." Danny implies he is a policeman at first, saying he doesn't have a warrant. "Called" on his ruse is slangy. Wastrel Way (talk) Eric
