not a movie for everyone and but this movie be in my top 10. i be a lover of black comedy . with a cast include richard dreyfus ( vic ) and jeff goldblum ( mick ) and larry bishop ( nick ) and gabriel byrne ( ben brass ball london ) in the lead and the line can not help but be dry . the support cast be nearly dead center . count the minor flaw in the movie represent ellen barkin make up give her face have a wash out look while there be a couple of gim me cameos by joey bishop and richard pryor that serve no purpose and and michael j. pollard screen time be too short . over all and the cast be just incredible without ego to wreck a fine script . if you have see larry bishop ( writer and director ) film and underworld ( a dark crime flick ) and you will enjoy this one . his next outing ( writer and director and actor ) be hell ride with michael madsen and quentin tarantino .
