One of the Most under rated Movies ever. Such a funny and Safe movie to watch. Nothing Fancy Hi tech or anything just plain fun. I have watched it so many times and I am soo glad I just remembered it today because it had been a long time, Now I know what I am watching tonight. Highly recommend it.

Look at that tomatometer rating. That's ridiculous. It's a gangster movie about Stallone trying to go legit with misunderstandings all through the house that you'd expect in a movie *from* that period. It's a total throwback with good-to-very-good performances, clever writing with some real wit to it, and direction that gets the job done without being ostentatious about the period it's in. Honestly, it's just a really fun movie, definitely rewatchable, ideally with friends. Highly recommended.

But it wasn't this movie! Award Winning Cast! Probably Stallone's best opportunity to break away from the Rambo and Rocky images, this is one of the most enjoyable, pleasant, family entertaining movies ever made. Where is should be a classic, it was deep-shelved and removed from any video, DVD or online streaming lists. But as the movie's own tag-line said: "In crime and comedy, timing is everything". While Stallone takes center stage, this beautifully arranged supporting staff, wonderfully done cinematography and brilliantly written script make this a movie for the masses that should have had a 2nd and 3rd life in video and DVD sales... and would be one of the most viewed videos on Netflix given the chance. Just the sound bytes of Tim Curry's Dr. Thornton Poole, Peter Riegert's Aldo, Chazz Palminteri's Friendly thug Connie... If you don't catch yourself off guard laughing and this fast moving quippy dialog, you are missing your humor gene.
