The writer and director think you're an idiot

There are so many insults to intelligence in this movie, you could probably write a book about them. I was willing to go along for the ride until it simply became unbearable.

Take for example this episode:

There's a murder / fire at a notorious meth lab in a bad part of town, and the ONLY piece of physical evidence the cops seize upon is the small bit of broken tail lamp from a car which is found a half block away. The crime lab identifies this apparently immediately, and obviously the detective in charge just knows that it is the key to the entire case.

Then there's the idea that a missing button somehow exonerates the wife - exactly how is not explained. Same with the idiocy of the arrest in the first place: the cops don't know about the blood on her jacket until afterward; they don't have her fingerprints to match with the murder weapon unless she's already been arrested and printed, right? Is the fact that she's simply uncertified leaving the garage enough to arrest her? No, of course not. Because she also exchanged 'words' with the victim earlier in the day. Well, obviously, lets arrest her now.

Good grief. It just goes on and on. What are these know-nothings doing writing and directing a crime movie? And also, who are these IMDb commenters that find this a 'thrilling' movie? Ugh.
