Sean Connery was brilliant, alongside a very young Andy Garcia, who I enjoyed much more in this film than in GF 3.
My favorite exhange in the whole movie was between the two;

Malone: That's all you need, one thieving wop on the team.
Stone: What's that you say ?
Malone: I said you're a lying member of a no good race.
Stone: Much better than you, you stinking Irish pig.
Malone: Oh, I like him.
