I cannot understand how a film this bad could have possibly been funded. Oh wait I think I can. A friend of mine forced me to watch this drivel over the weekend. We basically had to fast forward through parts of it because it is absolutely unwatchable. There is basically no plot, the acting is horrendous. D'Angelo is just not believable as the Gangster. Anyone that annoying and obnoxious would have been whacked within seconds by the mob. I guess Frank also thought it would be a great idea to replace dialog with incessant swearing. The F'bombs are off the scale!! The rest of the acting? what can I say. Sad would be it. Seeing Margot Kidder and Tony Rosato (fine actors in their day) reduced to working in this kind of joke is really pathetic. In addition to the acting, the filming of this movie looks like low budget porno. The filming angles of some of the scenes just don't work. Many times you can clearly see the bewildered looks on some of the actors who don't seem to realize they are in the shot or just cannot stay in character as they wait for the inane dialog to unfold. Its not even funny bad, its just bad!!
