This is the movie for you! We're talking mega-velveeta cheesy here, but soo much fun! Christopher McDonald stars as a tough cop with some control issues, granted he sees his wife gunned down in front of him and his young son, but kills the perp, so it goes unsolved. Flash forward seven years or so ahead and Mickey is still a tough cop, with some triggers waiting to be pulled. His son Jason, now sporting a mullet to make Billy Ray Cyrus swoon, is back to live with dad and his very hot girlfriend Vera, played by Dey Young of all people, but trust me total MILF! Poor Jason soon runs afoul of Gideon, played by Judd Nelson as a insane raccoon on an acid trip who dresses like a pirate. Seriously, not kidding, the man wears mascara and dresses in frilly lace! WTF! so over the top you just have to smile. Oh Gideon run a profitable car theft ring, but young Jason just digs the metal club he runs to cover it. Naturally Mickey tries to warn rebellious teen Jason to steer clear of Gideon, but heck what seventeen year old ever listened to their parent? Added eye candy is Alyssa Milano is a relatively small role as Eve, but her opening scene... WOWZA, what a hottie! I mean I seriously wanted to leap into my screen! Jason feels likewise, tho that doesn't stop him from bedding some seriously stacked babes Gideon throws at him. Totally trash, but done in the most enjoyable of fashions, with surprisingly good performances and some cool plot twists towards the end. "Conflict of Interest" is not a classic, but it's a great example of late 80's early 90's b-movie action and it delivers the goods!

"Fast Cars, Hot Women, Cold Cash. You want it, he's got it. But you may have to pay with your life…""Conflict of Interest" is an overlooked and somewhat under-appreciated part of the post-80's Judd Nelson catalogue. If you've seen every so-called "Brat Pack" movie ever made and are still hungry for more, this should fit the bill. Although while in "Conflict…" Nelson is definitely a brat, by this point in history the "pack" had dissipated.Christopher McDonald is great as Mickey Flannery, a cop on the edge who gets suspended from the force for shooting his wife's murderer in an act of revenge. While the audience is applauding his actions, the LAPD doesn't share his zeal, and he becomes a longshoreman who gets wise to an illegal car-smuggling ring. When he's not out on the docks, Mickey spends his time drinking and communicating with truckers and nerds with his unnecessarily elaborate ham radio setup.After this period of exile, it looks like everything is coming up roses for Mickey. He gets his old job back, he shares a house with his girlfriend who cares about him, and his son Jason returns after seven years living with his grandparents. But the arrival of Jason, rather than being a joyous family reunion, opens up a maelstrom of pain and problems for all concerned, especially Mickey.Jason is not the cute little kid Mickey remembers from when he last saw him. It turns out he is a motorcycle-riding, leather jacket-wearing badass with a monstrous mullet of epic proportions. His mullet represents the hurt, resentment and abandonment issues he feels towards his father. But Jason's not all bad, and secretly wants to be a good son. And Flannery sees his return as a great opportunity to be a family again.But Gideon (Nelson) enters the picture and, being the diabolical antagonist that he is, exploits these family weaknesses to the utmost, for his own evil ends. You see, Gideon is the local criminal who has his hands in every illegal activity in town, and he covers it all up in his role as owner of the, and I quote ,"deffest metal club in town", called The Wreck. Motorcycles hang from the ceiling. No wonder this place is so popular. Plus you know he's evil because he wears guy-liner, a lot of jewelry, has crazy sideburns and wears frilly pirate shirts that are so gay-looking, it makes "The Puffy Shirt" of Seinfeld fame seem positively tame by comparison. He's meant to be the decadent-dilettante-disturbingly intelligent-bad dude we all fear in our nightmares.Noting Jason's interest in sound engineering (a trait that must be in the DNA, remember dad's ham radios), Gideon offers Jason a job running sound at The Wreck, a job Jason enthusiastically accepts. While Jason, blissfully ignorant, is crankin' the tunes by D.I. and Gary Numan, ("Metal Club" presumably referring to the fact that people wear outrageous metallic clothing), girls around town start being found dead. Flannery is assigned to the case and soon realizes Gideon is just using Jason as a patsy. After several tense confrontations, it seems Gideon and Mickey are in a good-and-evil battle for Jason's soul. Gideon continually mocks Flannery's parenting abilities and insinuates he is the better father figure for Jason. This enrages Mickey, now literally fighting for his son's love. Flannery wants to go all out, but remembers where that has gotten him in the past. So he is fighting his inner demons as well. But in the course of his investigations, he discovers a shocking conspiracy that goes all the way to the top. (Where else did you think it would go?) As usual, there is an angry black Captain who yells at Flannery and demands Mickey to give him his badge and gun. Alyssa Milano makes a very welcome appearance as Eve, an associate of Gideon's that soon becomes Jason's love interest.One of the aspects of "Interest" is the use of crazy slang. Jason insults his rivals by calling them "Barney"s and when he is really mad calling them a "supper buddy"(? ) and Jason spouts haiku whenever the mood strikes him. One of the strangest and funniest uses of slang is when Gideon's goon named "Thrasher" insults Flannery by calling him "Jerk Beef" (???) This insult is clearly the catalyst in Mickey's quest for justice. "Conflict" has everything you want in a movie: Crazy slang, explosions, and Judd Nelson. There's no "Conflict" in taking an "Interest" in this tonight! Comeuppance Review by: Ty & Brett

This is one movie for the ages! Why it was never released on a more global scale still astonishes me to no avail. The first ten minutes of the movie literally had me at the edge of my seat. I didn't see any of the rest of the film, but I know that it still probably delivers those same dramatic punches one right after the other.This movie is truly the crowning achievement of one of America's top young child celebrities, Joel Katz. Portraying the role of "Young Jason", he delivers his academy award dodging performance so well I literally burst into tears after hearing his cries after his mother was randomly shot in broad daylight with a .50 desert eagle, right in front of his eyes. This spectacular actor then skyrocketed to fame with other memorable roles, such as the role of a random child in "Cheers", the Mario Paint commerical, and most recently, a spokesman for Impontency International.

A movie that has taken advantage of the stardom of Alyssa Milano by making her role seem larger than it truly is.. Nothing special here..your formula plot and wooden acting..The only thing special here is Alyssa Milano who is beautiful as always. On a scale of one to ten... 3
