the unlikely pairing of tom hulce and ray liotta is the thing here, hulce predictably in the walkaway gimme role of "someone mentally challenged" and ray liotta as a nice guy(gasp!). a feel good movie that feels good.

Hulce delivers a blow. Watching this and Amadeus will make you really pissed that he left acting. Liotta works too.

About a developmentally disabled young man and his compassionate brother. Full Review
A lovely small film that got lost in the shuffle
"fine acting holds the attention"
While Dominick and Eugene certainly is not a terrible movie, there's very little that will stay with you once the end credits start to roll. Full Review
