Herbert Ross directed this Nora Ephron-scripted buddy comedy starring Steve Martin, Rick Moranis, and Joan Cusack. Steve Martin plays Vinnie Antonelli, a street smart mobster who agrees to turn state's evidence and is forced to move to Fryburg, California as part of the witness relocation program. Rick Moranis plays the nebbish FBI agent Barney Coopersmith, who is assigned to help Vinnie adjust to small town life. Instead, Vinnie helps Barney come out of his shell, much to the consternation of divorced mother and relentless district attorney Hannah Stubbs (Joan Cusack).

from Albany, NY Funniest organized crime movie ever!
Steve Martin is hilarious as a mobster. His caricature of all things mafia related still makes me laugh even though I've seen it dozens of times.
Rick Moranis is also great in his role as the somewhat bumbling FBI agent.
This is a comedy that is fun for the entire family even though its rated PG-13.
