It’s kind of sad that kids growing up these days won’t have action heroes like Schwarzenegger, Stallone, Norris, Bronson, Russell, Seagal not to mention countless other 80s macho men to look up to. Instead they have to settle for guys like Vin Diesel and The Rock. I’ve more or less always hated Vin Diesel, but to my surprise I found myself actually enjoying a movie last week that stars just him. That movie was Find Me Guilty, and presents us with a completely different Vin Diesel than before. The movie is based on a true story about the longest mafia trial in US history, where Diesel plays Jackie Dee, an underling in the Lucchese family. Charges are filed against 20 different men in the family based on the RICO act, including Jackie Dee. Contrary to the other guys being indicted, he decides to defend himself in court, something which creates a lot of funny moments. I was pleasently surpised by this movie, worth seeing.
