none of it. Enter a stranger named Lester, who is a serial killer,
and offs the widow and a couple of others. The bad news for Lester
is that evidence still points to him.
CLAY
PIGEONS is a woefully uneven black comedy which sports a hip, young
cast and a first-time writer as well as director. The movie does
have a watchability, but stupid law enforcement following stupid
criminals leads to stupid entertainment. The cast looks like they
are having fun with the material, but this infectiousness doesn't
translate into interest in the dumb plot and underdeveloped
characters. Had the script been any good, it probably could have
been decent, but had the makers of the film used it to line birdcages
instead of funding a budget to make it, it would have been put to
better use.
