well made and well-acted

Rating: 7/10 (16 July 2002)

This is no Godfather. I thought it could have done better if the bonds between the three main characters were explored more. It has a quite predictable plot (i feared for everyone's but the main characters' lives everytime someone raised his voice and argued). I guess i should've watched this before casino and heat since they work in similar ways, but i didn't so it was quite repetitive to me. I love Deniro, yet there isn't much of him in the film. That's too bad.
