Nothing special, unless you are a Telly fan., 8 January 2001
5/10
Author: planet groovy from Rock Hill, SC

This movie is pretty dull. You get the idea it is a tough guy film pretty quick. Telly Savalas is not a bad actor, and if you are a fan of his you will enjoy his performance. The movie around him is pretty lacking however. The ending is terrible - I guess they ran out of money or something.
