Mafia



LET'S GO GET SOME CHEESECAKE
This film had the makings of a 5 star grindhouse. Ving Rhames is Renzo Wes the bad guy. He is tailed by Pam Grier who shoots a gun now instead of using mock karate moves. Robert Patrick is her partner. Renzo runs a strip club with the great looking Heather Rae Young dancing on tables. The soundtrack is 70's R&B rifts. And the film had a twist to it. Killing galore. What was not to like?

The execution was seriously bad. The plot went everywhere and nowhere. The lines were terrible and the actors were simply reading them, going through the motions. Ryan Combs couldn't direct a compass to point north. Heather Rae Young is great to look at, but couldn't deliver a line if her life depended on it. Pam Grier now has to rely on her acting ability instead of her looks to get by, and this script didn't help any. The twist was odd and didn't make much sense. Blue eyed Melanie Marden plays the sister of Ving Rhames which had me scratching my head. What was with the poorly developed...

Original Story Line
Adventurous but no new twists. Typical gangster movie. Good for entertainment but if you want new and exciting look somewhere else.

Fast
Got here really fast and in great condition. Great movie too. "The old school" for sure. I can remember those days. Movie is great.
