Sapphic mating dance between an ex-con handywoman and a gangster's moll ("I have a tattoo. Would you like to see it?") is prelude to a plot to steal $2 million from the Mafia. Flashy first film from the Wachowski brothers, Larry and Andy, who are not the Coen brothers but would seemingly welcome any confusion. There's an economical shuffling-together of the planning and executing stages of the caper, and a clever use of the redial button on a touch-tone phone. The cold color scheme, the showoffy camerawork, and the calendar-girl lesbianism, meanwhile, are emptily ornamental. Jennifer Tilly, Gina Gershon, Joe Pantoliano, John Ryan. (1996) — Duncan Shepherd
