Title: Hoodlum: Disapointing From Start to Finish
Review: If the title of the article doesn't give away my sentiments towards this movie, than allow me to elaborate. Hoodlum, judging by it's cast and theatrical trailer had potential galore. All that changes when you realize that by deciding to watch Hoodlum,you have done yourself a great disfavor. Without going into too many details (consider that a favor!)the movie depicts the gangster world of Chicago in the 30's and the infamous 'lottery' system that those gangsters helped finance. The movie is not only over acted but it's epic length may induce commas or nausea for those with weak stomachs. Stars Lawrence Fichburn and Venessa Williams only lend so much credibility to this otherwhise cliched mess. An 'end of the world' story line was all that was missing to make this the ULTIMATE disasater movie of the 90's.
