"Danny Rothman and Jared Troilo shared the star billing as Stone and Stine, respectively. Nailing the noir niche neatly, Rothman was the emphasis of troubled cool as the hard-edged, soft-hearted private eye...In nearly every scene, Troilo shined with an endearingly believable vulnerability; just as Rothman exhibited a sense of rakish charisma missing from the stage and screen for too long – a relic from the days of dangerous dames and cool cats."
"Danny Rothman plays a droll and understated Stone, and amazingly, he sounds exactly like a 1940s film noir detective. The resemblance is really uncanny."
"Particularly outstanding...Danny Rothman as the fictional private eye"
