I rented it, got half way through it, and I had to turn it off, it was that boring. Don't waste your money.
Reply:It's not scary and is more like "LA Confidential" - if you liked that, then rent it - it also has some good actors in it. Also be advised it also has very little to do with the TRUE Black Dahlia, Elizabeth Short.
Reply:Agreed to the above poster (s). Not good and not scary. It barely even nods toward the real victim of the crime; it is mostly a made up story of those involved in tracking the case. Scarlett Johansson is lovely, but no actress with a forties face. She just does not fit.
Reply:I bought it for $1 in China, and it wasn't even worth that much. I didn't finish it. I was really, really bored. Don't bother with it. I usuallyl like "artsy" films, but this one just really sucked. I left it behind in China cuz I knew I would never watch it again or finish it.
Reply:It is not scary at all...and it is not good either. I noticed it on some critics "worst movies of 2006" lists, but I figured with those actors, it would be good. I was wrong. It's film noir, so a lot of narration, which I find boring, but that's not what made it bad. There's some bad acting, and the story is not very good. It is a true story, an unsolved murder, but they put their own solved ending to it, and it was a stupid ending.
