Based on actual events, this crime comedy from Adventures of Pluto Nash director Ron Underwood details the farcical kidnapping of legendary singer Frank Sinatra's eldest son (played by Thomas Ian Nicholas). Desperate to gather the money needed to get their fledgling business off the ground, three bumbling criminals hatch a scheme to abduct the hapless Sinatra offspring and use the ransom money to fund their startup. Though they've rented a house in Los Angeles for the big event and every detail seems to be in place, the plan quickly devolves into an unbelievable fiasco that's too strange for fiction. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    Well I didn't seem to dislike it nearly as much as many others here, though I didn't care for it - I didn't hate it either. William H. Macey saves this movie from a bad to a fair - as his performance was very fine-tuned and intriguing and a pleasure to watch in it's own. Also thought the same for the small part played by the young man playing Frankie Jr. I think if you are a WHM fan who wants to see him (once again) demonstrate the fine craft of acting - it's still worth the watch. They also captured the time period in props and wardrobe without going over the top or being too kitchy which happens often. - If there was a fair rating - I'd rate fair - but it goes from bad - to good so I'll say 'good' only because Mr. Macey's own performance was just too good to rate the movie as haven't liked it.

    Even if you love William H Macy, as I do, this movie is sooo slow. I watched for almost an hour before I gave up and went to bed. I hate it when I wait and wait for a movie to get good and then it just dosen't. Better luck next time.
