This movie stunk. Slow and plauding. I couldn't get past the baby faced Elijah Wood as a hit man, married man with son & who had disappeared for 3 years. He had to have been 12 years old when he disappeared. I can only think that Edward Burns is a personal friend of Elijah Wood, thus the miscasting. I also couldn't get over how many characters in this film and in this district "Hells Kitchen " were Catholic (Forehead Crosses) and had Irish accents, as if they were recent immigrants from the old country. This could be plausible if it was the 19th century but 1980...no way.
