Amazon.com: This low-budget crime thriller has the feel of a major blockbuster and owes its roots to the hard-edged crime movies of the 1930s. Christopher Walken stars as a drug kingpin who is released from prison and vows to use his position and influence--and criminal enterprise--for charitable means. But a core group of New York cops are all over him and his gang, determined to go to war, whatever the cost, to bring him down. Eventually his empire--headquartered at, of all places, Donald Trump's Plaza Hotel--crumbles under the weight of double-crossing and a body count of open warfare with the cops. This is one of the most stylish films of the last decade, with a strong supporting cast (including Lawrence Fishburne, Wesley Snipes, and David Caruso) and some truly enthralling set pieces, including a stunning car chase and gunfight across a rain-soaked Queensboro Bridge. The film's tongue-in-cheek, over-the-top style offsets its nihilism; and its riveting visuals will have audiences hooked from beginning to end. --Robert Lane

I really like Christopher Walken, but this movie is a real dead dog. One of the worst movies I've ever seen - completely unrealistic, totally bad. I don't know how they got some of the actors in this stinker to show up and actually admit they had any part in this abomination. If you want a gangster movie, this isn't one - they spend more time emphasizing nudie club make scences than doing anything as far as developing a story or plot - a real stinker - not even worth the wrapper it's packaged in.

I recently watched this 1990 gangster thriller again and was blown
away. I had seen it when I was 17 when it came out and at the time
didn't really take note of the beautifully subtle performace of
Christopher Walken as Frank White, a recently parolled Kingpin who
immediatley takes control of the turf he left behind when he was inside.
Fantastic direction from Abel Ferrera, who seems to love Walken a lot,
for he shows up in Ferrera's 'The Funeral' and 'The ... Read More

The movie is great. I had a DVD, watched in the theater a long time ago so no doubt about it.
Now the Blu-ray. I don't know why the other guy said it's a razor sharp.
The transfer is so so. Most of the shots are slightly better than the DVD.
The sound is too small so have to boost up all the way. Gun fight sound is flat.
Well, I wouldn't say I regret changing into Blu-Ray, but couldn't say it's one of the best Blu-ray.

A lot of the older 80's and 90's gangster flicks show their age and technical limitations but are still enjoyable. "New Jack City" and "Scarface" are hardly the powerhouse thrillers they were in the day, but can still entertain. Even though these two films are filled with archaic styles and the territory has been way too explored, they hold up.
KONY is a different kind of gangster film, and it's serious identity crisis is it's major shortcoming.
Christopher Walken is great actor and fans ... Read More
