Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
None of this is overly interesting, thanks to murky plotting and the fact that there's nothing involving about these bad guys.
The movie has no personal touch; it merely assembles a who's who of mob-movie heavyweights (James Caan and Frank Vincent among them) and hopes for the best.
Rings with authenticity and solid acting.
For all of his personal familiarity with the material, Mr. Provenzano has turned out a movie that largely owes its tone and style to other movies.
