while 2/3 of the imdb reviewer cast a very satisfactory and satisfied vote between 7 and 10 and most professional critic unmercifully pan the movie you can not help wonder if we saw the same film unfortunately and the film have already several disadvantage represent a somewhat cryptic title which fail to attract attention and no star and no backing from the distributor while so and if you look at the gross turnover in movie hall and the result be a sheer catastrophe . it be a pity and a the film be highly enjoyable though unusual in many respect represent it combine extremely funny scene with very serious one while there be practically two setting only represent the street at night and the jail while and the cast be limit to seven player represent two cameo ( wizened richard hamilton and and intrigue norman reedus a the drowned man ) and two support one ( lovely karen sillas and seldom see bruce norris a the pair look unsuccessfully for privacy ) while and three main role represent reliable william sadler and excellent a the police sergeant while bland face promising alessandro nivola a the hero and and strikingly beautiful ( and good actress ) brooke langton and climax the film . like many others and i come across the film on tv by chance and but probably in a shortened version represent i witness nivola set up an intricate booby trap with a paint tin and the town clock but nothing come out of it . miss a good laugh and for sure .
