Gina Gershon and Jennifer Tilly nearly set the screen on fire in this clever, female-powered twist on the standard Mob caper film. Gershon is Corky, an ex-con renovating the apartment next door to where Tilly's Violet lives. Violet is the moll of psychotic gangster Caesar (Joe Pantoliano), who uses the apartment as an occasional location for meetings and beatings, and also uses Violet as an occasional plaything for his Mob cronies. Violet is attracted to the super-sexy Corky, and the two begin an intense affair. Corky hatches a plot to escape with $2 million that Caesar is planning to give to a Mob boss, and the mayhem escalates from there. ~ Don Kaye, Rovi
The story was much better than expected and had me riveted till the end. I did have to cover my eyes during the violent bathroom scene, but realize this was necessary for the story. Nice sex scenes, Gina Gershon is hot! One of the better lesbian themed movies! Highly recommened!
This is the "Matrix" brother's first and brillaint movie they've made. The players are in great form, Gershon is smokin' hot, stylish camera work and terrific story. Check it out. -Stone
