Synopsis

Christopher Walken is a Mobster who gets chummy with a group of preppie-like young men and becomes the victim of a kidnapping scheme. One of the kidnappers (Henry Thomas) has a sister who's been abducted by another group of kidnappers, and they've bagged Walken for his Mob connections and negotiating power. What follows is a game of psychological strategy in which the desperate group of guys slowly lose their advantage to the smarter, more experienced gangster--even though they've got Walken tied to a chair. The situation turns volatile when the young men start to doubt the wisdom of their strategy and suspect betrayal within the group.

Critics' reviews

"Weirdly engaging film (...) "Suicide Kings" tries a little too hard to be savvy and funny -- but it's fun anyway".

Peter Stack: SFGATE
