TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES, N. M.
Truth or Consequences, N. M. takes us down a familiar killers-on-the-run road only to swerve in enough unexpected directions to make it a fresh, exciting and thoroughly involving thriller. Its a strong first directorial outing for Kiefer Sutherland who, in working from Brad Mirmans smart script, gets the utmost from a fine ensemble cast including himself. Vincent Gallos Raymond leaves prison for the open arms of Kim Dickens Addy, and these devoted lovers look forward to a better life. Yet eight months later the drug dealer, Eddie, for whom Raymond took a two-year fall, has rewarded him only with a chump-change warehouse job. This makes Raymond vulnerable to a plan to hold up Eddie for his stash that will involve Raymonds prison pal Curtis and his associate Marcus. While Marcus is the most level-headed member of the gang, Curtis, a two-time loser, is a wild and crazy guy who starts opening fire at Eddie.
