There Dennis Hopper, Ice t, Michael Madsen, William Forsythe, Patrick Kilpatrick, James Marshall, and of course what B-movie wouldn't be complete without Eric Roberts. Marshall plays an ex-con looking for a honest job. During his search for a straight life he gets in the middle of a drop off gone bad and ends up with $100 plates (for making money). As a result he has the mob (Hopper and Roberts), the cops (Forsythe), and a hitman (Kilpatrick) on this tail. Madsen play an old friend who helps him out. GEEKY TRIVIA: Mickey Rourke originally was cast but dropped out last minute because they didn't want his dog in the movie and was replaced by Madsen. An okay movie with a fun cast. Worth renting.
