10th & Wolf is the kind of film that I always liked, in fact year back I may have given this a much higher rating.
This is a drama about loyalty,friendships, honour, family. What is different here is that all the characters are not very nice people, in fact some are downright vicious. This being said,the all were at least interesting,. The script by Howard Moresco & Alan Steele is well written & told, Howard Moresco also directed it.
The cast is large comprised of newer actors & older veteran performers. James Marsden, Giovanni Ribisi & Brad Renfro have the leads, they are first rate especially Ribisi. Piper Perabo is the main actress in this film, & soon will have starring roles,Leslie Ann Warren, Brian Dennahy,Dennis Hopper all have good scenes, Val Kilmer has a small cameo, (I did not recognize him .
For some reason, the story location is Philadelphia BUT was made in Pittsburgh.
There is lots of violence & many people die. What would you expect from a gangster movie.. As I said this is a guilty pleasure film.
Ratings: *** (out of 4) 86 points (out of 100)IMDB 8 (out of 10)
