Featured review
I saw this movie years ago with my mom and dad. Tonight I shared it with my family and they liked it. Even my 13 year old son. Joe Pesci at his best for sure. The only real complaint we had was that Joe looked like he was walking hunched over the whole time. I'm not sure if that was part of it, but it was off putting a little bit. Other than that it's a typical 90s feel good movie where a bad man finds his way and ends up being a good dude. But it is also very true. The best way to get someone to understand the discomfort they impose on people is to put them in the same situation. In a lot of ways I wish such punishment was bestowed on more slum lords and politicians.
