    Disappointing compared to the TV series

    I can appreciate why they made this "reunion" movie but while it gives the series a sort of conclusion and allows us to see our favourite Wiseguy characters again, the story seemed lightweight and uninvolving, Vinnie looked a lot older (and heavier) and apart from him, very little was seen of the rest of the series cast. I've nothing but praise for Ken Wahl for making this film as I'm sure he was in physical discomfort throughout due to his accident in 1992 . I can understand why he preferred to retire after it. We'll miss you though, Vinnie...

    the great WISEGUY series

    Wiseguy was an awesome show. Good actors Ken Wahl, Jon Banks, Kevin Spacy and tons more. Action, suspense, crime, Mafia everything that made a great series. I really wish it ran a lot longer it was too short lived. Ken Wahl is an awesome actor. But its unfortunate about his accident that hampered his career basically broke his neck. I hope to see him back on the screen sometime. i hope to see another Wiseguy. Great Series and in 96' good movie that came out Wiseguy movie. Another movie needs to come out where Ken (Vinnie Tarranova) is now retired and some how gets drawn back in to crime fighting as a mafia type or something like that. I hope to see him on the big screen i really miss the great acting that the whole show put out it was great.

    If you loved The Series You Will Like The Wiseguy Movie

    This was a very good TV movie, having loved the series, this was a refreshing new take on it as everyone is a little older. If you loved the series this look at Wiseguy will be most welcomed. If interested you can find this movie at:http://specialty.weebly.com/wiseguythemovie.html It makes you wish the series was still on, so many great actors were involved in the series throughout the years.

    In this movie it was great to see Vinnie and McPike together again, the chemistry is still there and one thinks that they could have made more than one movie which makes this a classic. Though not at the level of wise guy at it's best, but you take what you can get and this was worth the watch. So I would recommend this movie to any Wiseguy fan.

    wise guy an Alltimeshow .

    wise guy is an all-time show.after 20 years i still enjoy watching it,and all of my friends still remember agent 4587, frank,mike terrenova,sonny steel-Grave,Mel profit......etc.you see the whole idea of the show was original at that time ,and showed people new dimensions of the real relationship,between agents ,,Vinny,miketerrenovva, between undercover agents and criminals their after and how can things go nasty when they become really close,how can someone like Vinny terrenova gets over his feeling for steel-Grave&fulfills his moral duty as an OCB agent,this job that caused him 18 months in jail,the love&respect of his family most of all his beloved mother. personally i think these kind of shows gave us a real sense of what happens behind the close doors .i can go on forever but sadly I have to go. wise guy was ,is&will remain a brilliant show.

    Love every show and movie of Ken Wahl

    I am an 80s kid and i truly love the 80s , 90s movies and tv shows of Ken Wahl. Basically our childhood hero :) this one is one of those beautiful classics of his. Too bad he never got to play the Superman Role because he would have been great at it.
