Synopsis: Charlie keeps getting in trouble because of his irresponsible cousin Paulie; after they lose their jobs in a restaurant because of Paulie, the latter comes up with the idea of robbing a safe with the assistance from an older man who used to be a safecracker. What Paulie doesn't tell them is that the money in the safe is mafia money for bribing cops.
Appraisal: This is my second viewing. Consistently entertaining, and with excellent performances by Rourke and McMillan (Roberts is fine too, but overacts a little), and good smaller performances by everyone else. Maybe it is a bit uneven, with some banality interspersed with the good stuff, but it stands a second watch pretty well.
