Her life is his job.

I love this movie and watch it over and over all the time! It is so funny and so cute. Madeline Stowe is so GOOD in this movie. Her character is great and just CRACKS ME UP! And of course Sly is his sexy self and is a real softy protective hero. I tell ya, this is a movie to watch! I totally picked it up randomly and it turned into one of my favorite movies.Fun little film - XTRUClerk
I was very surprised by Avenging Angelo. There is plenty to make fun of here, Stalone trying to be demure is one, Madeline Stowe looking like she's in her early sixties at times is another. But the movie does have a certain amount of charm. Barring that comment about Stowe, she's still awfully cute. The box art is another thing that confuses. Along with the title you would expect this to be some kind of mafia hitman story. Well, it is. Sort of. But it's really more of a romantic comedy. I wouldn't go out and buy this one but it's a fun film and worth a look. Might be Stalone's best movie in some time, and certainly better than the horrific (meanic terrible, not scary) Eye See You. Cheers.My Favorite Stallone Flick - JulioSof
I don't know why people dislike this film so much. I can't think of a warmer performance by Sly. This is my favorite film of his followed by (tied for second place) "Daylight" and "Cliffhanger". "Rocky" is too cliched and "Rambo" is just plain silly. I own this on DVD and bought a copy for a close friend. . .so to each his own, I suppose. I'd like to see him make more films like this one
