After mob boss Vic (Richard Dreyfuss) leaves a mental hospital, he returns to find his nightclub operation in disarray.

I mean the cast is incredible. And the basic premise (gangsters trying to knock each other off for control) should work. But... wow. The movie makes NO sense. The dialogue is so bad you wince. Most of the acting is terrible. One of those turkeys you watch once to experience the awfulness, then never watch it again. See more Read all reviews
