What kind of guys gamble with the boss's money, swipe a killer' Cadillac, and party on the mob's credit card? Best friends Harry and Moe are go-getters inside a Newark mob outfit. They go get the boss's dry-cleaning. They go get his car. Now they have a new task: go get each other. The boss has secretly hired each pal to whack the other.

Notes
Brian De Palma, whose Scarface and Carlito's Way are mobster-movie classics, finds the genre's funny bone in a comedy "filled with ideas and gags and great characters. It never runs dry" (Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times). Dan Hedaya and Harvey Keitel are among the ensemble's portrayers of kingpins and palookas. And Danny DeVito and Joe Piscopo play the pals whose friendship might survive the mob if they don't kill each other first.
