Use of more recent standard – USB 2.0 – allows to increase speed of operation by 30 – 270% when compared to USB 1.x.
This is a classic noir set-up, but nothing about its execution works, not Lynn’s complete 180-degree character turn into Gollum and definitely not Cusack’s bumbling criminal, who fires his gun and then immediately says, “I’m sorry.” Cusack’s character - who at one point gets in a fight with a tree - is riddled with Cusack-ian quirks, all of which make him seem like a cool uncle, not a criminal menace, which is what this story needs to work.īy the time the climactic showdown - needlessly teased in the film’s opening - arrives, any tension once present has long since deflated.Thanks to USB bus the device can be connectedto any PC on the market – it would not be possible with parallel interface ( LPT), which is completely obsolete nowadays. Almost immediately (and out of the blue), she becomes a money-hungry monster willing to do whatever she has to do - and cross whomever she has to cross - to make off with the money.
That loot - $8 million, stuffed into four duffel bags - washes ashore where Lynn finds it while jogging one morning after fighting with her pals. He stages a plane crash to fake his death, but gets separated from his loot when he parachutes out. Victor and Lynn once had a fling, but Lynn is now seeing Jeff, a fact they hide from Victor for no reason other than script advancement.Ĭut to Miller (John Cusack, looking like he’s been sleeping in his “High Fidelity” clothes since “High Fidelity”), a white-collar criminal who embezzled $8 million in cash. Those friends are Victor (“Boyhood’s” Ellar Coltrane), Jeff (Jacob Artist) and Lynn (Willa Fitzgerald). Three college-age friends on a camping trip discover a stash of cash floating in a river and the rest writes itself in the contrived, misdirected and all-too-predictable “Blood Money.”
