Entertainment Reviews:
...Fast and furious....A full array of comic performers...
New York Times
When you're looking to remake French cinema, the name 'Stallone' leaps immediately to mind. As in, 'for God's sake, don't cast Sylvester Stallone!'
Low IQ Canadian
Rating: 2/5 --
The charm of this film lay in the talents of the supporting characters.
Reeling Reviews
Rating: 2/4 --
Despite all the running around, the movie still feels slow, dragging sluggishly toward the end of its long 109 minutes.

Product Description:
Sylvester Stallone stars as famed mobster Angelo "Snaps" Provolone, who promises his dying father (Kirk Douglas) that he will hang up his tommy gun and lead a kinder, gentler life. However, on the day Snaps is to start his legitimate career in banking, he gets derailed by a spate of family emergencies. It all begins when Snaps's accountant suddenly declares his intention to wed the ex-gangster's daughter (Marisa Tomei)--but he's not the only prospective husband banging at Snaps's door. Then, just to complicate matters, his daughter announces she's pregnant. Later, a young stranger arrives, claiming to be Snaps's daughter--which is news to him. And that's just the beginning of the confusion in this madcap farce from esteemed comedy director John Landis.
