3.0 out of 5 stars Denis Leary kicks ass, September 11, 2003

I saw this movie at my friend Joel's house, and the first time I saw it I didn't get it but I got it the 2nd time. I was half asleep the first time, anywho, It's just about Leary and he kills all these guys who tried to kill his dad and he's especially looking around for a man named Richard Essex( Joe Mantegna), now Mantegna is Frank and Leary is Johnny Crown or Johnny Alt, the 2 have a bunch of nicknames. Larry Bishop is Ned Lynch( Bishop also wrote the screenplay) and later he kills LEary's father and then there's all this mobsterinbetween stuff. Leary takes Mantegna to see Anabella Sciorra for therapy, becuase the two had been in love and by this movie they still are( Mantegna is a lady's man, let's say that). Leary has an insider who kills off his "hit list" and Mantegna and Leary go around doing Leary's " things to do list". Leary knows Mantegna's Essex but he doesnt want to tell him. They go to The Underworld where Leary, Mantegna are up against Bishop and Jimmie F. Skaggs( Leary's insider, but who turns on him). This movie is very violent and very bloody. I don't know how manguys get killed in the beginning but Leary just plows um over like sushi. lot's of twists and turns and the story keeps itself up there. Abe Vigoda( who plays Mantegna's father) is never cooler.

4.0 out of 5 stars For the price, how can you go wrong, March 12, 2000

I think this movie is pretty damn good for what it is. Its a pulp crime story about a guy who gets out of jail and starts talking care of old business. Things aren't ever that easy, and with a sub plot in tow, violence breaks out around every turn. If you liked Leary in suicide kings then you should like this. I'm waiting for the DVD, but for the low price how can you go wrong.
