Joe Pesci, Vincent Gardenia, Madolyn Smith Osbourne and Ruben Blades star in this 1991 comedy. Pesci (Goodfellas) plays Louis Kritski Jr., a slumlord like his father, Big Lou (Gardenia) who gets sentenced to live in one of his apartments he must fix in 120 days or goes to jail. He meets a council woman from court (Osbourne) who checks in on him to see if he's doing what he supposed to do and tries hitting on her. He befriends Marlon (Blades) who tries getting him to play basketball and such. Soon, Louis realizes he can't be like his selfish father and must be his own man. I think this is one of Pesci's best and he & the late, Gardenia were great together. I recommend this.
