I just saw this on ABC Family and it was overall delightfully cheesy and predictable.
After watching the Sopranos it's hard to see gangsters as warm and cuddly. While going straight is part of the plot, that implies that there was a life of crime before including violent crime. They never really deal with this effectively even a cheesy way.
Throughout the script they tell the audience instead of show the audience.
I believe in comparing a movie to it's genre. On a one to ten scale with "The Princess Diaries" being a 9 I would give this one a 8 if it wasn't for the bad editing and some story problems which brings it down to a 6.
Some things don't flow well which leads me to believe they edited out large chunks to put in more commercials. If that's the case then maybe they can reedit it to make a better version.
