As in the original film, Jack Carter (Stallone) is an enforcer, but now he works for a major Las Vegas gambler and bookie named Fletcher (singular), who is never seen but is voiced by an uncredited Tom Sizemore. Jack calls himself a "financial adjuster", which is to say he collects unpaid debts. He is secretly involved with Fletcher's girlfriend, Audrey. When Jack learns that his brother, Ritchie, has died in a drunk driving accident, he returns home to Seattle for the funeral
Stallone's film is a great entertaining but minor entry in his filmography. The best scenes in it are those with Caine and with Rachel Leigh Cook, each of whom brings out emotional shadings in Stallone that we don't often see.
