That opening heist/chase scene was absolutely genius. It was like Buster Keaton slapstick humour, meets Airplane's rapid fire jokes, meets The Blues Brothers just anarchic paint on paint automotive gore.

Just watched tonight and this summarizes my feelings on the film. There's something hilariously perverse about a stripper on a bale of cotton.

One of the great closing shots.
