Definitely 3 stars. I might have given it higher marks if I didn't have it all figured out so early. It was just a little to simple & obvious. Well done, though. Likable characters, believable motives & setting. Very well setup & played out. ( )

Sister act.

An ex-private detective is now literally a bowery bum, living mostly for the pursuit of cheap booze and bad memories of the wife that cheated on him with an employee. Beating the hell out of the latter, pistol whipping style lost him his PI licence and led to his current state.

This changes when a man he grew up with comes to him asking for help with money going missing out of his tailoring business cash register.

Investigating against his better judgement gets him involved with the cops, a lowlife PI with a grudge against him, the wives of the business partners, musos, and more.

There's the odd past life with wife flashback, but mostly this is involved with working out what the hell is going on, especially with the multiple women now wanting to be nice to him.
