Los Angeles 1939. Outside the spotlight lies a city of secrets.
Private detective Philip Marlowe becomes embroiled in an investigation involving a wealthy Californian family after a beautiful blonde hires him to track down her former lover.
While the film isn't offensively bad, there just isn't much interesting to see here. The characters are as dull as can be, as is the story. The acting is neither good nor awful, though the dialogue is quite poor in parts. This movie made me wonder if Liam Nelson actually acts anymore or does he just read lines in the blandest scripts he can find. That sounds a bit harsh, but he really hasn't been in anything good for a really long time. Overall I give it a 4.5/10
