For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
Crappy film
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Most of the unknown actors in this film are doing quite well in their careers!! Matt Servito was a regular on "The Sopranos".Bruce Nozik is on Boston Legal.Jenny McShane stars opposite Keanu Reeves and James Spader in "The Watcher'.Also Menahem Golan replaced the director and directed and acted in "Hit The Dutchman" which was iconic in itself!Menahem Golan was responsible for giving many of our icon actors today their first breaks.Those actors include Sylvester Stallone, Mickey Rourke, Faye Dunaway, and the list goes on.
I really enjoyed Bruce Nozick as Dutch Schultz in this fun gangster flick. Nozick's Dutch Schultz is one wild character and he makes this movie a treat. I was looking for some fun B movie escapism and this flick delivered. It's got a good cast, great musical score, and fine cinematography. Nozick's Dutch is one wild character! The scene in the grocery store is unforgettable! The exploding plate of spaghetti assassination is a hoot! The armored fortress like vehicle is a blast! Don't take this too seriously or expect it to be a documentary. Love B movies? Give Hit the Dutchman a try. I'm giving it such a high score because I had so much fun watching it.
I watched this movie three years ago, and it was spectacular. Bruce Nozick who played Dutch Schultz, was great. He had a vain, and sarcastic attitude, which cracked me up. And that was what Dutch Schultz was like. The violence was real, like the Mafia was. This a must see movie
Guns, explotions, boobs, foul language, crappy dialog. It's typical B filmmaking, with an unusally good score. This was shot back to back with Killer Instinct, aka Mad Dog Coll, using a lot of the same cast, same set, but Killer Instinct is much better. It has it's moments... again Chris Bradley is good, as is Ed Bowz, and Sally Kirkland, but the film is not gripping. And Bruce Nozick begins to grate on the viewers nerves in this picture.
