Dinner Rush - (Giraldi;USA;2000) - ****
"Revenge is a dish best served cold."
Wow, this movie was a surprise. When I got it in the bargin bin at Wal Mart I had no idea of a true deal it was. I thought it was a mediocre cheap movie and was completely wrong. Think of a mob version of Magnolia in an Italian restaurant. It's full of memorable characters each with realistic performances and dialogue. After a friend is whacked, we view one night at the restaurant afterwards where a seemingly normal night with some money problems between characters arise, then two Queens mobsters come and want a part of the restaurant. The film focuses on several different people during the night, from the owner to the cooks, to the patrons that lead to a very interesting and unpredicted end.
