Good as he was...

Rourke is playing himself. This is a perfect coincidence of player and role. One cannot help but be aware of the tragedies of Rourke's personal life paralleling that of his character's.

Marisa Tomei is every bit his match in this film. I give her the greater ACTING credit.

On first viewing, the film is subordinate to the players; still a great and ironic pleasure for it. It will grow in stature over time.
