Spoilers ahead. Suburban single mom and her teenage son get entangled with a seductive mob hit woman, who is trying to run off with the mob boss's money. Features your usual assortment of corrupt cops and mob tough guys chasing our heroes and trying to get the money back. Sure, a routine plot, but this one is better than average, mostly because of superior acting. Erika Eleniak is totally adorable and convincing as the mother. She is no longer a sexy young thing, but it looks like middle age is really going to agree with her. Best acting honors though go to Jeremy Lelliot, who convincingly plays her son, and carries the film. This character is the hinge for most of the story's development, and a lesser actor in the role would have destroyed the movie.
Oh, and of course there is as always one of those Baldwin guys in some role or other. The Baldwins ought to get their own union -- but they probably don't need it, as it already seems to be a rule in Hollywood that you need at least one Baldwin in every movie. Feh!
Anyway, the dialogue and action really move this film along. Pleasant and diverting, good for an evening's entertainment.
