Kuffs is (not a serious film) about immaturity v evil greed. George Kuffs (Slater) is a 21 year old highschool dropout moving between jobs and superficial relationships until he simultaneously finds out his girl Maya (Jovovich) is pregnant and his civilian cop brother Brad (Boxleitner) is killed by a local bad guy Kane (Rippy). George was looking for a way to escape the responsibilities of it all until he learns that Brad left George the patrol district he owns and operates. Because everyone views George as the epitome of loserdom, George takes over the patrol district much to the chagrin of everyone else. George matures quickly, finding skills critical to the storyline that he never knew he had. Then applies his own style of problem solving to avoid losing his patrol district, while staying alive to find his brother's killer, and also do right by Maya. The pace and action are OK, it is shot well, the dialog and choreography is fine but cutesy. Don't skip over the explanation of the patrol district, otherwise you will wonder what the heck is going on.
