a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
Billy Ollie
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Victor Scalia (Andrew Stevens) is a sleazy lawyer in L.A. His girlfriend Kathy Miller (Teri Copley) wants a commitment. He gets cat burglar Jed Stewart off. Buckley and Carpatti helps safecracker Tom Dart escape from the Feds. Scalia leads the criminal group to rob a bank vault. A mystery client is paying $20 million for a secret something in one of the deposit boxes. Don Santiago set up the deal. Scalia brings everything but they're only after a microchip. This is a bad B-movie. It's an attempt at comedy that fails completely. There is a pending reveal that is mildly compelling. The action is weakly made. This is bad but not exceptionally bad. It's a mess. Its biggest sin is the bad comedic writing and even worst comedic acting. When the jokes keep falling flat, it leaves a bad taste.

OK. First off this is a very rare and unheard of film. So I would like to tell you how I stumbled upon it.One night as a kid, I was just thinking what would a title to a good Rated R movie be, and "Down The Drain" first came to my mind. I then actually looked in Maltin to see if such a title exisited and it did. It was this one. Not very good rating.Anyway, throughout the years I've always thought of that moment and then just last week wondered if I could get it. It was on Netflix and decided to see it.It is a very bad movie, but it is the type of bad movie that is very refreshingly enjoyable and very funny.What it's about is this crooked lawyer who rounds up a gang of crooks to rob this vault and then turn them into another con for $20,000,000. But practically everyone in this film is so greedy and stupid, but so stupid that they can't even fail. That's what makes it funny. The things they do are so stupid, its like you'd think it won't work or its suicide and it does work out well for them.One particular funny scene is when this fat guy gets stuck in a hole and he is given a soda to drink. He is then burped and he is able to be pulled out. I mean thru/o the entire movie you keep asking yourselves, 'well what are they going to do now?' and the next scene plays out and you're thinking, 'I didn't expect them to do that.'Overall, this is an OK film. It does get tedious (and you'll be asking, 'when does it end') but it is a very decent popcorn flick, and it keeps you guessing.

And now, for the stupidest plot twist ever: A big big corrupt lawyer (who often pays jurys and judges so as to get his clients free and innocent) and a bunch of his 100% immoral clients organise a robbery. Somewhere in the middle of the film, and as they have already committed it and waiting for one of the lawyers clients who's gonna pay 20.000.000$ for the stolen goods, the lawyer learns that the loot contains a military microfilm that foreign spies wanna have! Moreover, he suddenly turns into a moral, good patriot (bluuuuurghhh!!!!!) and decides the loot should be returned to the police!!!!!!!! How is that? ANTI-AMERICANISM MESSAGES AHEAD! This film could be OK silly fun (not really, but!) for a viewing late at night in cable, as the previous reviewer similarly said. But this film is exactly the unintentionally stupid that ONLY American cinema would produce.patriotism is actually the equal of the sheep loving and caring for their shepherd.

In most respects this is a pretty dreadful film, with broad overacting (hello Andrew Stevens), appalling racial stereotyping (thanks, screenwriter Moshe Hadar), and a predictable outcome. At the same time there is something endearing about the film, a barely disguised T and A remake of The Thomas Crown Affair. At the very least the action is non-stop and indiscriminate viewers will be pulled along in the story's undertow. I can't really recommend it, but if you happen across it late one night on cable, you'll probably enjoy it.
