I can't believe that such a talented crew and cast could finish up with a movie so poor. Usually with a poor film my wife and I end the suffering after a quarter hour or so, long enough to make some sort of judgement, with this film I went on watching for another quarter of an hour because I thought it must be a parody on gangster - dropout movies, but alas, it just went from bad to worse. The acting was childlike, even Nicholas Cage, who prior to this movie I had thought to be a reasonable actor, overplayed his part to the point where he would have been better playing a circus clown. As I watched this film I thought of all the money spent telling this story that could have been used for more entertaining pursuits, such as filming a wet house-brick drying in the sunshine.
