Featured reviews
This flick isn't nearly as terrible as the other members ratings suggest. Cuba was believable as a hoodlum boxer. And everyone else did their part. It won't win any awards, but it's not a bad Sunday afternoon choice. Overall I gave it a 5/10.
It's definitely not the worst movie out there but it just drags on and on with almost no purpose. It's like the scenes have just been pasted one after another without any real continuity and the characters are not developped enough for us to relate with any of them. Subsequently, we don't care what will happen to them at all. The plot is also a bit convoluted and the whole thing jut feels amateurish
This is a trivial movie that tries to do too many things. The plot is a mish-mash, with a truly unlikely trigger, and some apparently random cutting back and forth in time adds nothing. Richard Dreyfuss, in full disguise as a Russian mobster mit a wery gutteral accent, what a waste!
If you go into it with low expectations, and don't pay to watch it, it's not a terrible way to kill some time.

The characters make so many stupid mistakes I had to wonder if they weren't going for a Coen Brothers dark humor effect. It doesn't seem like it for most of the movie but the stupid mistakes made by the characters are just too stupid to be taken seriously. I suppose you could say it strikes a blow for exploited women but not in a very meaningful way. Watch it just to see if you like it, but don't spend much money to do so, I think you'll feel robbed.
This movie has two Oscar winners but it's really sad to see what bad writing and direction does with talented individuals. The plot is awful and the direction is down right amateur. That said, there were a few interesting things they did for this type of genre. Also the young love interest stole the screen when she was on it which was some nice eye candy.
