I'm looking forward to seeing it.

Belushi's part is brief—but he plays it up. It's also a nice role for Cattrall—who I only know from Sex and the City. And Ewan McGregor nails the main role.
There's a lovely "not-quite-noir" feel to the film that does remind of Hitchcock. Very deftly done.
The Coen Brothers would have taken this over the top—and you come away thinking that a lot of restraint was exercised in the making of the film, and that it's all to good effect.
