Amazon.co.uk Review
One of the overlooked films of the 1980s, perhaps because it is such a downbeat tale of an amoral family. Sean Penn plays a kid whose small-time criminal impulses are stoked to a new level when he falls in with his father (Christopher Walken), a vicious career criminal for whom no problem is so large that it can't be solved by a murder. At first exhilarated by the attention from his father (and the jobs he gives him to do), he gradually catches on to just what a bad guy Dad really is. But when he tries to extricate himself, he discovers that Dad now has him squarely in his sights. Penn is terrific in a role of emotional complexity, while Walken, king of the creeps, is positively frightening as this soft-spoken but highly lethal patriarch. --Marshall Fine

DVD Description

Most Helpful Customer Reviews   5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: A SHOCKING FAMILY DRAMA!, 20 Feb 2007 By  CAPTAIN HABZ! (LONDON United Kingdom) - See all my reviews This is a very good family crime drama. the film has extremely shocking moments which will surprise viewers. the film is about a family where the parents are divorced and one of the sons doesnt enjoy his life situations and turns to his dad for help. his dad is a classy criminal and thief but brad jr doenst know. his dad tells him: 'you want in then theres no way out' things go wrong and the emotion builds up throughout the film. this is highly recommended if you enjoy thriller and crime made with originality with faint comedy between some of the cast. it includes stephen geoffreys and kiefer sutherland as solemates of sean penn. enjoy!!!  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?

Penn's performance reflects the script and direction of the entire movie, it's intelligent, heated but by no means inspiring. However the star power and charisma of Wlaken pours off the screen. No gem, but by no means a bad film.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you? (Report this) › See all 4 customer reviews...

As it is, it's good enough to overcome a slow pace and a plot so depressing you might ask yourself, "Why am I still... Read more Published 8 months ago by C. O.
