The Ref (1994) stars Dennis Leary and Kevin Spacey. Leary stars as Gus, a burglar who, on Christmas Eve ends up with a burglary gone wrong. Spacey stars as Lloyd a henpecked businessman who is having marital problems and the family on the way for Christmas. Leary finds his only choice is to take the family hostage. It is here that the movie takes off with Leary trying desperately to find a way out while keeping the family from melting down. Excellent repartee between Spacey and Leary ensues from the time they meet until the very end. A well done comedy that relies more on the dialogue than any form of slapstick.
