IMDB

Dennis Leary takes arguing couple Kevin Spacey and Judy Davis hostage on Christmas when he botches a burglary. Spacey and Davis are great as the married couple talking about getting divorced moments before being held hostage. They fight throughout the film in a fairly realistic manner while Dennis Leary flips out at them arguing without chewing the scenery too frequently. To me the highlight is when Kevin Spacey's family comes for Christmas dinner and Leary has to pretend to be their psychologist.

8/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
