I enjoyed "Jerry and Tom" quite a bit. The acting and character development is great. Joe Mantegna, Sam Rockwell, William H. Macy, Charles Durning, Peter Riegert, and others, contribute their talents. The car lot fronting for a murder for hire business is intriguing but the attempts at black comedy mostly misfire, probably due to the very grim motivation of the contract killers. If on the other hand they had been partners saving their blood money to constantly keep expanding the automobile business, that would have lifted this black comedy to greatness, simply by making the plot more outrageous. Financing a restaurant, just by killing people, worked wonders for "Eating Raoul" and that is what is missing here. - MERK
