Summary: Boy is this familiar
Review: Being from the Bronx and working for a landlord who is the
owner of many such buildings, and strangely enough, VERY
similar to Louis Sr, I can appreciate the comedy aspect from
both sides. And it really is closer to the truth than most
people think. Unless of course, you live in one of these
buildings. I don't recall what Borough this is supposed to
take place in, but New York City is full of them.
Very funny movie. Pesci and Co. are all outstanding.

Review: I Thought Joe Pesci Did A Great Job Playing The Slum Lord. He Wanted The Rent Money Because The House Was Fallin' Apart. He Meets People In The House Like This Kid Who Hangs Out Alot On The Streets In A Very Bad Neighborhood In New York City. I Think You Would Like This Movie.

Summary: It's Ture imitation of a Slumb Lord
Review: Joe Pesci was just awsome in this movie as slum lord. I'd have to say he played the part very well because I knew a slum lord and all he wanted was the rent money. The house was a falling about and he didn't care. It was pretty funny too. Rob Daniel and Joe Pesci worked well together. This is a funny movie and one who went through this sould see this and can relate to it.

Summary: The super under house arrest
Review: Joe Pesci's role in 1990's GOODFELLAS won him a few Oscars. Before GOODFELLAS,Pesci had roles in LETHAL WEAPON 2 and BETSY'S WEDDING. After GOODFELLAS,he did HOME ALONE where he was a burglar who,with Daniel Stern,terrorized the star,MacCaulay Culkin. In this film,Pesci is Louis "Louie" Kritski Jr. who receives an apartment building for his birthday from his mom and dad Louis "Big Lou" Sr.(the late Vincent Gardenia). But Louie is tried for and convicted of property neglect and was originally sentenced to one year in the county jail. The presiding judge changes the sentence to 120 days of house arrest in Louie's gift building. He reluctantly complies with the court order to make the necessary repairs against Big Lou's wishes. Big Lou willed Louie his other buildings upon his passing(Big Lou owned 26 other buldings). Big Lou threatened to cancel his bequests to Louie if he made the repairs. Obviously,Big Lou lets nature take its course and does not believe in repairs and rejuvenations. Big Lou's heart is broken when he finds new lights and notices Louie giving his tenants portable heaters(the building's boiler is broken). Louie bought the heaters with his dad's company credit card. "They(the company) called for authorization!",quipps Big Lou. When Louie moves into apartment 5A of his building he makes a few friends without plan. They are Tito(Kenny Blank),a young black kid who lives with his grandmother Leotha. Marlon(Ruben Blades) is always helping Louie when he needs it. Naomi Bensinger(Madolyn Smith Osborne),who seems to be a friend,is a prosecutor who checks up on Louie from time to time to make sure he's complying with the court order. Louie asked Naomi in one scene to witness the distribution of the heaters. She said it was "more of a gesture than a solution". The building was about to be destroyed via explosives. Louie threatened to throw the perpetrator off the roof,where they both were. Louie is bailed out by his father but he and Marlon waste no time in repairing and painting,delighting the tenants who were previously upset.
