- TriviaThis film is based upon the 2014 novel "The Black-Eyed Blonde" by Benjamin Black, not one of Raymond Chandler's original Marlowe works.
- GoofsAfter Liam Neeson's Marlowe is knocked unconscious by the thugs, he tells Ian Hart's police detective that the thugs took his .38 caliber pistol when it was a .45 automatic in the previous scene. Hart hands Marlowe what he calls "another .38," which is a .32 caliber revolver.

Featured review
Everyone has their interpretation of Philip Marlowe. As for the books that Raymond Chandler gave us, Marlowe is most often more interesting than the characters he encounters, and more interesting than the plot. He is a loner by nature, he's articulate and funny. He plays chess puzzles and reads. He is also tough. His character is what makes you want to come back for more. The movie is fair, but it would be much better if Marlowe were actually in it. This is the eleventh interpretation of this character and it would be such a novelty if at least one would give us the character as he was created by Raymond Chandler.
