Wissenswertes
William Lustig was originally going to direct True Romance (1993) before Tony Scott. During that period, Quentin Tarantino and Lustig discussed Tarantino writing Relentless 2 and Tarantino was excited. The two thought they would be like Scorsese and Schrader writing Taxi Driver (1976) together. However, the relationship soured when Lustig demanded rewrites on True Romance.

Zitate
Terrell: [Angry that he's been assigned grueling routine desk work] I'd like to meet the brain donor who came up with this brilliant idea.
Malloy: Hey, you're looking at him. You don't like it, kiss my ass.

'Shiftless' is more like it.

This one's funny because it's your basic procedural potboiler about a hotshot rookie detective and his grizzled old partner tracking a murderer, which, yeah, is pretty standard, except here the grizzled old partner doesn't really do anything. He doesn't help solve the case, he doesn't mentor the rookie in any meaningful way, he doesn't offer any profound insights into life all he does is sit around and bitch and moan about how work sucks and how the boys at the crime lab can take care of it. It'd be like if Morgan Freeman had spent the whole run-time of 'Seven' playing cards with that crew in the library and let Lab Tech #1 do all the work.
