A bartender wants rid of an obnoxious drunk but not until the drunk has left a decent tip. So the bartender tells the story of two mobster families, the Minetti's who work out of an Italian restaurant in the East San Fernando Valley, and the Mulroney's who work out of an Irish pub in the West San Fernando Valley. Mob war breaks out when one of the Minetti "boys" stiffs Big Paddy's daughter on her tip. We soon see why these hoods are called very mean men

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its dark comedy by contrasting a mundane bar scenario with its grotesque, criminal retelling. It relies on classic mob tropes, pushing them into absurdity through petty revenge and greed.

Those who tire of solemn gangster epics will find a cascade of ridiculous escalations where a stiffed tip sparks a war, and barroom rudeness becomes an epic saga of "honor." What lingers after is the sharp parody of a genre where the greatest sin is stinginess. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Tony Vitale

Best Watched

Watch with friends, pizza, and beer, primed for absurd violence and a spoof of mob-movie clichés.
