10th and Wolf

Directed by Robert Moresco
Staring James Marsden, Giovanni Ribsi, Brad Renfro & Piper Perabo
Rated MA
Score 5/6

A young man has had a less then spectacular end to his military career which landed him in the brig. In a deal made with an FBI agent he is forced home to help take down a mobster in order to keep his cousin and brother out of jail.

A brilliantly crafted dark crime thriller, that doesn’t glamorize the mob like so many movies have a tendency to do but shows a more gritty realistic view of the criminal world. 10th & Wolf is a treat to watch considering that the director also director Crash, that there are icons such as Dennis Hopper, Brian Dennehy & Val Kilmer at work and this brilliantly offset by younger actors and talented unknown actors. I believe that young actors such as James Marsden and Giovanni Ribisi are really beginning to prove there worth when they take on roles like the ones that they where portrayed in 10th and wolf.
