Conflitto d'interessi

A movie that has taken advantage of the stardom of Alyssa Milano by making her role seem larger than it truly is.. Nothing special here..your formula plot and wooden acting..The only thing special here is Alyssa Milano who is beautiful as always. On a scale of one to ten... 3

OK people, I'm going to honest with you. I have seen half an hour of this movie, and not from the beginning. Furthermore, by the time I caught this movie (at 1 am), I was drunk and half asleep, so I don't know how much I got from this film. What I saw was Judd Nelson as a tough villain dressed like Gothic pirate and "Shooter McGavin" (from Happy Glimore) as no-nonsense cop with a grudge against Nelson. Also, there was a young man played by someone I don't know, who happened to be the cop's son. Anyway, to make it short,in the part of the movie which I saw, the cop's son went to a metal bar owned by the goth pirate, who introduced a red hot smoking blonde to the cop's son, who later on supposedly killed that hot smoking blonde.Then, there was scene at the metal club where Nelson tells McGavin he is going to murder his son and after that I completely fall asleep.

I know this review is a bit useless, but I wanted to write it because the movie looked to me as a strange thing, o perhaps I was hammered. Anyway, see this movie for yourselves (if you can find it). A piece of advice, don't watch it while being drunk or half asleep, for it's going to confuse you a bit more. Cheers

Not because I want to preserve the integrity of this masterwork, but because I stopped watching it about half-way through.

First, the good: Alyssa Milano and Dey Young look beautiful in this film. Second, there are several hot heavy-metal-looking chicks in the movie, as well. Third, Zia Harris has the mullet for the ages -- he actually looks he could be the twin brother of Kim Richards from "Tuff Turf." I caught this movie on late-night cable just last week and my immediate thought was: Wow, "Happy Gilmore" aside, Christopher McDonald simply cannot act. Script was filled with any number of clichés: Mom killed in opening scene; boy estranged from his father, who hit the bottle hard after his wife's death. Cop who plays by his own rule but (I'm only guessing, not spoiling) is ultimately redeemed. Wacky, over-the-top evil villain (the always execrable Judd Nelson, rocking some impressive mutton-chop sideburns, like a twisted Elvis impersonator) ... you name it, it's in there. Zia Harris' rebel son character is given "depth" by having him spout a haiku to Alyssa Milano, so that's a bonus. Also, interminable opening credits showing the L.A. working waterfront. Yawn.

Quite simply, one of the worst movies I've seen in recent memory, and I've seen both "Pieces" and "The Incredible Melting Man."

This is the movie for you! We're talking mega-velveeta cheesy here, but soo much fun! Christopher McDonald stars as a tough cop with some control issues, granted he sees his wife gunned down in front of him and his young son, but kills the perp, so it goes unsolved. Flash forward seven years or so ahead and Mickey is still a tough cop, with some triggers waiting to be pulled. His son Jason, now sporting a mullet to make Billy Ray Cyrus swoon, is back to live with dad and his very hot girlfriend Vera, played by Dey Young of all people, but trust me total MILF!

Poor Jason soon runs afoul of Gideon, played by Judd Nelson as a insane raccoon on an acid trip who dresses like a pirate. Seriously, not kidding, the man wears mascara and dresses in frilly lace! WTF! so over the top you just have to smile. Oh Gideon run a profitable car theft ring, but young Jason just digs the metal club he runs to cover it. Naturally Mickey tries to warn rebellious teen Jason to steer clear of Gideon, but heck what seventeen year old ever listened to their parent?

Added eye candy is Alyssa Milano is a relatively small role as Eve, but her opening scene... WOWZA, what a hottie! I mean I seriously wanted to leap into my screen! Jason feels likewise, tho that doesn't stop him from bedding some seriously stacked babes Gideon throws at him.

Totally trash, but done in the most enjoyable of fashions, with surprisingly good performances and some cool plot twists towards the end. "Conflict of Interest" is not a classic, but it's a great example of late 80's early 90's b-movie action and it delivers the goods!

OK...we've got Christopher Macdonald as a hardboiled cop (Mickey Flannery - ha!)and a pirate-shirted, eyeliner wearing Judd Nelson as a murderous crime lord (Gideon - hahahaha!). Laughing yet? I still laugh until I cry watching this one. Macdonald is totally hapless in such a serious role (he REALLY acts his heart out too) and Judd Nelson's wardrobe is enough to slay anyone. The film also contains the always amusing titular line. One of the characters actually exclaims "Conflict of Interest!" There's plenty of silly action and dialog to go around. This movie is way out of print, but if you love cheese, you should hunt down a copy.
