Even a fine cast can't do much to breathe life into Boiling Point, a thin gangster piece starring Dennis Hopper as a pathetic small-timer trying to get ahead with one final score. The bad guys don't take him seriously, a cop (Wesley Snipes) is content to mow him down if necessary and a woman (Lolita Davidovich) who cares about him just wants him to settle down. Director James B Harris has the raw elements of a middling film noir in front of him, but he can't even link up the pieces enough to make Snipes and Hopper appear to be in the same movie. --Tom Keogh
