Kiss of Death (1995)
4/10
So So Remake...So What
2 May 2005
Just finished watching this and although I saw it edited on local cable, I can't imagine the unedited version being much better. As others have noted, Cage was unconvincing as "Little Junior" - a mob boss prodigy who takes over the reins upon the demise of his ailing father. NYPD blue stardom aside for Caruso, Helen Hunt's minor role, Jackson giving a so-so performance at best, this movie left a lot to be desired. Fairly standard fair with the old crime operation goes bad, one of the perps gets turned by the cops, rats a few people out, goes undercover, seeks retribution and so on and so forth. If nothing better is on and you have seen all your own movies too many times, give this a try. But don't get your hopes up!
