Film6.5KomediSuçMatthew Bright'in yönetmenlik debutu olan bu kara mizah dolu gerilim, "Kırmızı Başlıklı Kız" masalını modern ve rahatsız edici bir şekilde yeniden yorumluyor. Reese Witherspoon'un genç ve başına buyruk Vanessa rolündeki çarpıcı performansıyla dikkat çeken film, Kiefer Sutherland'ın canlandırdığı sinsi psikopat Bob ile unutulmaz bir kötü adam portresi sunuyor. Oliver Stone'un yapımcılığını üstlendiği bu amoral yol hikayesi, geleneksel masal anlatılarını ters yüz ederken şiddet, karanlık komedi ve sosyal eleştiriyi bir araya getiriyor. "Natural Born Killers" ve "The Devil's Rejects" sevenlerin kaçırmaması gereken bir kült klasik. Film, izleyiciyi rahatsız etmekten çekinmeyen cesur anlatımıyla "politik doğruluk" sınırlarını zorluyor. Sundance'de yarattığı sansasyonun ardından underground sinema severlerin gözdesi haline gelen bu yapım, 90'ların en sıra dışı bağımsız filmlerinden biri olarak kabul ediliyor.
