IF... DOG... RABBIT

Cinemavixion Review

Matthew Modine takes the helm as director and stars in "If... Dog... Rabbit," a gritty crime drama that delves into the cyclical nature of familial crime and the struggle for redemption. Modine portrays Johnnie Cooper, a man seeking a clean slate after incarceration, only to be pulled back into the orbit of his troubled family. The film, released in 1999, benefits from a strong supporting cast, including David Keith and the legendary John Hurt, whose presence lends gravitas to the narrative. While the plot might tread familiar ground, the performances anchor the story, exploring themes of loyalty, consequence, and the elusive promise of a normal life. "If... Dog... Rabbit" offers a compelling look at how past actions can cast a long shadow, making for a thought-provoking cinematic experience.
