An emotionally imprisoned ex-con, who took a phony fall to square his account with a bookie, now wants to even the score with the Buffalo Bills placekicker, Scott Wood, who missed the Super Bowl-winning field goal. (The real-life former Bills kicker, Scott Norwood, could not be altogether pleased with this plotline.) Vincent Gallo, who plays the lead role, has some frivolous fun in his first directing effort, with split-screen images, theatrical lighting effects, off-balance compositions and odd croppings. But the mannered repetition of dialogue must nearly double the running time, and more than double the viewer's impatience. Christina Ricci, Ben Gazzara, Anjelica Huston, Mickey Rourke, Jan-Michael Vincent. (1998) — Duncan Shepherd
