The Bag Man is a taut crime thriller that follows Jack (John Cusack) a tough guy with chronic bad luck but human touches and legendary crime boss Dragna (Robert De Niro). Dragna has summoned Jack and a host of shady characters to a remote bayou motel for unknown reasons and over the course of a long and violently eventful night Jack's path crosses with the stunningly beautiful Rivka (Rebecca Da Costa). All of their fates intertwine and when Dragna arrives on the scene there are sudden and extreme consequences for everyone involved. (Transmission Films)

A film with great ideas - a bag with something interesting inside, a mafioso who wants the killer to follow the rules, other characters who are after that bag. This is simply brilliantly executed, plus Cusack has been doing similar ambiguous, rather darker roles lately. Robert De Niro is a bit cliché in this, but he has divine hair. However, as the movie progresses, everything falls apart. The characters stop making sense, they are unnecessary, and the story ends completely mediocre. Another wasted opportunity.
