I can't believe that this was a movie made for video. The acting and direction are so tight that I would have been glad to go the theater to see it.
Peter Falk is very believable as the stained-by-life bookie with a generous heart. Freddie Prinze, Jr is chilling as the cocky and arrogant nephew of the underboss. He is down right COLD! He deserves his fame.
The rest of the cast is simply terrific. My only beef: Everyone should have had Boston accents since they were in Boston.
7 out of 10 stars. A joy to watch.
