  Small Engine Repair draws you into its web for the first hour with a character study of some poor, poor pitiful men. American Buffalo only there's no robbery - only skulldugggery ... the script was honed from a successful off-off-Broadway play of the same name ...
  A trio, played by director/author/actor John Pollono, Jon Bernthal and Shea Whigham perpetrate the rituals of male bonding .. in…
