Critical reception
TV Guide gave the film two out of four stars and described it as a "modest murder mystery...Tightly paced with several highly tense sequences."[2]
gollark: They're bad at it and it would not be easier if you could just spin off new threads at random. There would also probably be issues with synchronization overhead.
gollark: No, that would cause horrible race conditions constantly.
gollark: Anyway, threads and the various synchronization primitives in C (or, well, commonly used with C?) are not a particularly good model for concurrency given the many, many bugs created through use of such things, as opposed to actor models and whatever.
gollark: What? That makes no sense.
gollark: Yes, but there's no performance benefit, you can just run multiple programs.
