    Beggar too clean

    having worked in engineering for years - I can relate to this movie. Many of my cow-orkers fit this guy to a tee. Scary

    Yeah Kirk’s son looks like a laid off McDonnell Douglas engineer from Long Beach or something.

    Sorry to disagree. As someone who lived in LA when the movie came out the thought that neo-Nazis represented some kind of threat in LA was laughable. They purposely pulled their punches when it came to making this a realistic movie. They should have based the movie is "Springfield" because it had no basis in the reality of LA in the early 90s.

    I don't remember neo nazis. I know he was the angry white guy that was a big narrative at the time but he was good at it

    I thought it got off track with the domestic violence. Too much angry white guy
