I found it to be an enjoyable gangster comedy, albeit there
was a lot of alarming violence. Did anyone know that Grosse
Pointe, which is located in Michigan, once had a law that
barred Jews and Blacks from living there? It's a pity to
know that they, like some southern states, had racist laws,
but fortunately, such things do not take place in this
film. It's a surprisingly entertaining vanity project for
Cusack, and both he and the rest of the cast are top notch.
