From the dialogue to the soundtrack, I felt like this movie was grabbing from other classic mob movies.
There were even direct quotes! ex: a conversation between freddie prinze jr and scott cahn about whether or not it was better to be loved or feared... come on! ... It was like listening to fingernails going down a chalkboard to here these two guys butchering one of the great mob movie moments between Sonny & C in A Bronx Tale.
The dramatic role was clearly too much for Freddie to handle. Scott Cahn and Alec Baldwin were bright spots, but there were too many other awkward moments that seemed like a collision between your typical romantic comedy and a bad mob movie.
If you're going to use the Stones in a mob movie soundtrack... at least pick songs that have not been used in other mob movies.
Don't waste your money and pay to see this in the theater. Its a rental.
