K Dogg’s Quick Movie Review

Here’s a short review of a recent movie I’ve seen.

 

Movie: Chinatown

Starring: Jack Nicholson, Faye Dunaway

Co-starring: Burt Young

Rated R

Time: approx. 130 min.

 

Jack Nicholson plays a private eye named Jake Gittes. In this murder-mystery Jake is hired by a woman (Faye Dunaway) to investigate her husbands extra-marital affair. During his investigation Jake digs up a whole other scam which involves murder and other stuff and ends in a showdown in Chinatown. The movie's plot is kind of confusing. I did like the dialogue and the setting of the movie. It is set in the day when men wore hats and suits all the time. This movie is pretty decent and worth watching if you like mystery movies.
