This one stars Nicolas Cage and I can't recall the other persons name. Dabney Colman also co-stars. Basic plot is a black man moves into a rich neighborhood on some island off the MA coast. Some neighbors who didn't realize the previous owners of the new neighbors house had sold see their new neighbor hooking up his stereo through the window. The neighbors think it's a burgler and call the police. The plot gets even lamer after that. Thumbs down, I don't even think it's worth the rental.

I agree. I was unfortunate enough to pay full price to see this in
theater when it was first released. So far, it's the worst movie I've
seen this year, and I've seen a lot. It really stinks. Not only is
the plot completely predictable and unoriginal, but the pace is so slow
that it drags in places. I almost walked out.
And, I am a Nicholas Cage fan, but his role, and his lines were so bad,
that he couldn't save this.
Don't bother is right.
