Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

A derivative, mostly dull contemporary crime movie in which a heist goes wrong and the survivors fight to the death. Wary, honourable, world-weary thief Roy Egan (Keitel) is out for revenge against semi-psychotic, untrustworthy upstart Skip Kovich (Dorff), who betrayed his fellow gang members - including Roy's brother Lee (Hutton) - after a daring diamond snatch. True to formula, the relationship of Roy and the widow of another victim of Skip's deceit (Janssen, not without appeal) shifts from mutually cool to respectful and tender.
