Suicide Kings (1997)
Director: Peter O'Fallon
Starring: Christopher Walken, Denis Leary, Sean Patrick Flanery
Synopsis:
When the daughter of a wealthy family is kidnapped, her brother and his friend kidnap a retired mob boss to force him to help get her back.
Impressions:
This is a really cool psychological thriller that hinges on Christopher Walken's performance as Charlie Barret. It's great seeing the kidnappers being so wildly out of their depth while Walken's character plays them like fiddles. Fans of The Big Bang Theory should enjoy Johnny Galecki's part as the nebbish Ira. Denis Leary is also solid as Barret's right-hand man. I honestly didn't see the twist coming. Maybe you will. Anyway, I definitely think this one's worth a watch.
