    Not one of Samuel L Jackson?s finer films, but not a bad storyline. Watchable, but not miss-able.

    I watched this on HBO a week ago. It wasn't like a movie from the 80's. Samuel L. Jackson's acting was good back then and better now.

    Fantastic film. Haven't seen it in years, but I remember being very fond of it. Leave it to HBO to come up with some of the most interesting work in the last 20 years or so.
