Josh Bell Crooked Marquee Dec 3

The quest for vengeance shares space with underwhelming subplots about the brothers' buddies, and the movie lurches clumsily from broad comedy to grim drama. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Nicholas P. @npeetros Dec 6 Gritty, emotional, and surprisingly humorous for a story about losing. A love story to South Philadelphia with heart and soul. Superb acting by Mike Bash, Mark Webber, Michael Gambino, Carmine Yusko, Danny Donnelly, and Peter Patrikios who stole every scene he was in. A new classic is born. See more Read all reviews
