Just saw it again last night...

hadn't seen it in twenty years (give or take)

Where to begin????

Sasha Mitchell is adorable and gives heart to an otherwise lame movie...

ITs almost good if you watch it as a farce... there are some good laughs (the guy making the tongue faces at the mom's gf) and like I said, a lot of heart...

Insulting to Puerto Ricans and Italian Americans alike...but still funny to me

Seems like they had a list of IA phrases that they had to use and made sure every single one was included i.e. fuggedaboutit, mamaluke, cuisine etc

Must comment on the line dancing in the square that was hysterical and the way they used the one guy as a battering ram..too funny...

Anyway I was hoping to rediscover an old favorite, unfortunately it didn't make the grade....

...and I am just going to have to feel this way until I DON'T feel this way ANYMORE!

The last time I saw this movie was probably 17 yrs ago, on cable. I remember not really liking the movie, but geezus Sasha Mitchell was so gorgeous that i watched it over & over. He was so beautiful in this movie it really hurt to look at him. I never saw him in anything after that.

How? This was never released on DVD. You should buy every copy they got and put them on Ebay and Amazon.

mabey your looking at wrong title? my dvd is called: "Gangsterz!?" and I looked on all the actors profiles on the back and they all stared in this movie. Mabey search that title? But I didn't have any luck.

I tried to find the film under the title you suggested "Gangsterz!?" but couldn't find anything online. Can you provide a link online to anywhere selling the DVD or list the UPC # on the back of the DVD. It's not that I don't believe you its just this is the firat I've heard about the film ever being released.

I Don't believe this is in a catalogue, they probably accidently got a shipping of them? Not too sure but there was like 12 movies there for 2 dollars, I baught 4 including this feature and almost all of them were under 200 votes so they must be quite rare. I can get you a picture but Im not sure how long it would take, I try and do it soon ;)
