At Charlotte’s insistence, Pally’s half-brother Ray pays Pally a visit and suggests he buy a race horse to cheer up. Ray’s always playing the angles, and he’s got his eye on a horse that’s cheap because it’s been misdiagnosed. Ray knows the horse is a champion. Before they can win some money, a local mob boss, Frank Finnigan, sees the horse and steals it as payment for the gambling debt of Tony, a local jockey and single parent. Can Pally and Ray get the horse back, get Tony out of hock, and win some moola? What about Charlotte: can Pally let his heart take the lead?
Plot: Boston cop Pally is forced into early retirement, putting a strain on his marriage. Pally’s stepbrother, Ray, attempts to lift his spirits by tipping him off to a sure-bet racehorse. But their attempts to secure the champion equine are thwarted by a local mob boss, who steals the horse as repayment for a gambling debt. With their investment on the line, Pally and Ray become entangled in a web of underworld crime and murder.

Nicely predictable
Sutherland & La Paglia do their jobs his well, as do the supporting cast. There are a few twists to an otherwise predictable tale. Besides, any film with Lothaire Bluteau as a mobster is fun to watch. It was definitely worth the rental. I gave it 5 out of 10.

Thank God for 24
Kiefer Sutherland is and always has been a talented, powerful actor, who showed promise at a young age but has yet to find his place on the big screen. Why then, you may ask, did he decide it was a good idea to star in this inane piece of made-for-TV drivel? We can only hope he fired his agent afterwards.

The plot involves a retired police officer (Sutherland) being convinced to buy a stake in a racehorse by his small-time crook brother (Anthony LaPaglia), only to get caught up in a caper involving the local mob. All while trying to win back the affections of his estranged wife (Rhada Mitchell). Or at least I think that was what it was about. It’s hard to concentrate when you’re fighting the urge to fall asleep for the best part of 90 minutes.

An extremely dull series of events follow: so basic, unexciting and unfunny you have to marvel at how somebody could possibly pitch such a script, let alone succeed in getting it produced. A week-night, graveyard-slot film if ever I’ve seen one.

Usually I would think nothing more of such an effort, vowing to avoid future post-midnight screenings of movies I’ve never heard of. But with the acting talent involved in this it warranted a comment. I feel relieved for Sutherland and LaPaglia who have since struck gold with their prime-time television hits, and Mitchell who is continuing to forge a nice line of critically-acclaimed Hollywood roles (although, to be frank, neither of them manage to add any spark to the dreary proceedings around them in Dead Heat).

The only saving grace for the actors involved is that this effort flew so far under the radar it was never in a position where it could seriously endanger any of their careers.

That was an hour and a half of my life I will never get back.
