[edit] Synopsis

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

The oldest son of a mafia family is pressured by his family to settle down and get married; but when he finds the perfect girl, she turns out to be the daughter of a powerful district attorney. The perfect girl's co-worker turns out to like her as well, but she does not like him so he turns to the darker side of the law. Unfortunately for him, the mafia son has more that a few tricks up his sleeve and gets support from his dim-witted brothers and henchman.
