Independent noir that has some of the most pessimistic, pitch black outlooks and cynical, fatalist pairs of leads on its side. At the same time, these traits are also the film's biggest weakness, as the overall storyline is based on a hard to swallow premise and arranged around a number of outright "idiot plot" points, you could argue - a cascade of events that could have been interrupted at several points with just a few seconds of reflection on behalf of its protagonist and which just made it kinda difficult for me to take the whole thing seriously.
