Little Odessa (1994)
5/10
I think there are no bad films starring Edward Furlong and this one sure as hell let's me continue to think that

As most of the time Edward Furlong plays somewhat of a pitiable kid in this movie as it seems to be his quality. He mostly plays silent and introvert characters on screen. But this time the film focuses not on him but on his brother, performed by Tim Roth. This film is in a way more about family then it is about the job that Tim Roth has (he is a hitman) and I consider it more of a drama in a way than I do Before and After which I saw recently too. And that is also the reason I do not like this movie, it is too dramatic. That plus the fact that the performances were not good, but just OK, the directing was just OK just everything was just OK makes the whole film just OK. What I thought was funny though was to hear those Russians speak Jewish, for it reminded me a lot of German and I could even understand something at times when it was not even subtitled.
