Watch Under New Management For Free

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Surprisingly incoherent and boring

Great Film overall

From my favorite movies..

I just came across this movie yesterday and watched it again a little while ago on the tube. What a LITTLE GEM of a movie!! Very well done, Great Plot line and Terrific Acting!!! The two main characters were charismatic together and the secondary were funny and entertaining. I am now FRANTICALLY trying to find WHERE I Can BUY this movie??? I went searching on the web and called a few video stores only to find, THIS MOVIE must not have been Released for sale yet??? Does Anyone out there own it and if so where did you find it? Do you have ANY information on this movie? Terrific movie should have been a theatrical release.

Stumbled onto this remarkable little film while channel surfing and couldn't stop watching. A beautifully shot film, excellent performances, and a cast you can't help but love. I don't recall seeing any ads for this film in the theaters, nor did I see any advertisement on the cable channels. I don't know why this film hasn't been promoted 'cause this film is brilliant. This is independent film making at its best. The cast consists of familiar but essentially unknown actors - but each and every role was perfectly played. The chemistry between all the players will make you want to know more - one of the reasons I came to IMDb looking for it - and you'll want to watch this movie more than once. I guaranty the two leads, Chris Diamontopoulis and Kelly Overton, will be big stars. Watch this film now on Showtime. You won't regret it.

Under New Management, a wonderful take on the Mafia genre, concerns a socially conscious Wall Street Yuppie named Robert Monte (played superbly by Chris Diamantopoulos) with ties to the mob. Raised by his uncle, a capo, because his own father was whacked, he honors said uncle's dying wish to reform his crew by helping them go legit and generate enough revenue to pay a mob debt, lest they all meet their demise. Robert forms a real-estate company and the wise guys turn into real-estate agents. On their road to legitimacy, they find it helpful to occasionally return to their mob roots when they need a little extra boost to pull something off. All this happens under the watchful eyes of a couple of FBI agents, one of whom is a beautiful, Irish woman played by Kelly Overton; her relationship with Monte forms a major subplot that keeps you wondering whether she wants to put Monte away for life or have his baby. The movie is a drama mostly played for laughs, and I found it brilliant and hysterical, with Monte continually comparing the Mafia to Wall Street: "Bernie Madoff made you guys look like shoplifters." What's so funny is how true his opinions are. When the gang grumbles about paying taxes, he points out to them, would you rather pay taxes or lawyers? Pay FICA or do prison time? A rich cast of pros (many you will recognize from forays on The Sopranos), supported by an intelligent script by Denis Hamill made this a winner for me. I don't plan on erasing it from my DVR anytime soon.

To be honest, I don't watch a lot of movies…but when I find one that appeals to me…I'm like a kid and have to watch it again and again…this is one of those films. It's an Independent film without the standard "glam". The script has some wicked twists and turns…but it never becomes silly or overly romantic. Everything is great, from the acting to the writing, not to mention that it truly shows off New York's beauty. The music was perfect and very different from other films. I enjoyed its simplicity and the actors were incredible. Under New Management is a sweet, charming very well made movie…too bad more movies aren't as wonderful as this one. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Makes paying for cable well worth it!
