the only reason i decide to check this movie out be the presence of maggie q and in one of her early role . she look very pretty here and play two role ( twin sister ) and but neither give her much to do . unless you be a completist who need to see every one of her film and this one can be safely skip . thank god she do naked weapon right after this and turn into an international action star . my main problem with manhattan midnight be that it try too much ( especially with that overbear music score ) to play like some sort of poetic tragedy and when it main character be a smug and unredeemable professional killer who doesn not mind kill innocent people ( the second maggie twin be an exception ) and and whom by the end you will probably want to see dead a well . and he would be dead and if only the cop and the other killer who be shoot at him and in the increasingly silly action set piece and be not such completely lousy shot . perhaps the only people who be praiseworthy in this flick be those of the makeup department they really do a great job . half out of 4 .
