Query: Not even close to Chinatown

It's easy to make a comparison of this movie and Chinatown. But to suggest that you'll like this film if you liked Chinatown is ridiculous. Chinatown was a great film. Mulholland Falls plays like a bad made-for-TV movie with cliché characters at every turn. Nick Nolte is so bad he's painful to watch. And Melanie Griffith isn't any better. Except for a couple of good scenes here and there, not even the excellent performance by John Malkovich could save this dog.
