This mob picture comes with a high pedigree:
Director co-writer and star Danny Provenzano
(VAMPIRE VIXENS FROM VENUS) is a bit of a mobster
in real life; he's pleaded guilty to racketeering
and his great uncle is the prime suspect in the
disappearance of Jimmy Hoffa. In his directorial
debut Provenzano brings gritty authority to his
tale of mobsters using computers for the ultimate
heist. Looking to "earn his nut with the
organization Nick (Provenzano) and two buddies
orchestrate a complex way of skimming money off of
the top of global online bank transfers via the
Internet. Unfortunately they need to raise $50000
to get it off the ground and so they turn to the
old-school mafia guys for the cash in the process
dragging them "kicking and screaming into the 21st
century. Naturally once the billions start piling
up betrayal greed and a lot of blood and gunfire
follow. The film benefits from a nicely mixed cast
of fresh-picked off-the-mean-streets newcomers and
familiar mob movie faces like James Caan
(GODFATHER) Vincent Pastore (SOPRANOS) Frank
Vincent (GOODFELLAS) and comedian Pat Cooper
(ANALYZE THIS). The tough-talk dialogue is
diverting with nice use of Tarantino-esque pop
culture references. Provenzano infuses the film
with a perfectly seedy ambience.
