I should note that I only know about the mafia from movies, so I can't verify or refute the depiction of the gangsters in "The Brooklyn Banker". Anyway, it had an interesting plot and an interesting set of characters. Still, I wish that it had done more to emphasize the era in which it was set by showing news clips from the era (Watergate, Vietnam, etc).
The movie's OK but no masterpiece. Mafia movies are OK to see every once in a while; otherwise they get repetitive. I'd say that the movie's worth seeing once.
Who ever would've imagined the son (Troy Garity) of people (Jane Fonda and Tom Hayden) trying to bring down Richard Nixon co-starring with someone (Paul Sorvino) who played a member of Nixon's cabinet (Henry Kissinger)?

This was a well written mob story that was period correct. I embraced all of the characters and casting was dead on. As a Italian American I loved all the old school references to our culture. The feast scenes were a throw back to my youth, the sights and sounds were beautiful. I could almost taste the sausage and peppers. Federico Castelluccio proved himself as a feature film director with Brooklyn Banker. He captured the essence of this period in time. I have to also recognize the writing of Michael Ricigliano his interesting twist on this mob flick kept me interested and rooting for certain characters. He really captured the old school mob movies and this will be destined to be a cult classic. I really enjoyed this film and highly recommend it.
They spent all their money on the cast, who basically reprise previous roles but their characters are all surface mannerisms. Every frame is a,lame homage/copy of better mafia films but it looks like a student production... the videography is amateurish and the direction, self-consciously awkward. These high ratings have got to be from the crew and their families, real cinephiles wouldn't award an amateurish movie with high ratings.
The Brooklyn Banker exceeded our expectations, especially with the excellent stand out acting by Garity and Proval.
The director obviously has a good eye for detail as the camera work, lighting, and locations chosen, transported one into a somewhat gritty looking Brooklyn in the 1970's. Hats off, too, to the costume and set directors for being such perfectionists in keeping every detail true to that decade. The realistic casting of the extras and use of locations was also quite effective in bringing that era alive.
The movie was well paced and built up by the good acting and story line which rang true. Refreshingly, it did not overreach.
Quite good genre/indie film with a Scorsese type ending.

All the time people say "They don't make em like they used to." The Brooklyn Banker breaks that statement. I recommend seeing it if you are a true fan of old school mob movies like the Godfather and Goodfellas.
This film gave us an excellent taste of what we loved so much about these classics. Not only did it have two of the greatest mob actors of all time starring but the piece also transported us to the 1970's and has preserved on film a unique part of NYC Italian history & culture - The Giglio.
The irony of this film was so poignant and unique. It had a quiet elegance even though there was violence. Could make for an interesting sequel. Would love to see what could be done with a non- indie budget!
Note: *You will especially enjoy it if you spent any time growing up in Italian parts of Queens, Brooklyn or the Bronx. It will feel like going home, even if for just a few moments. How often do we have that kind of opportunity? Thank you to the makers of this film. Keep em' comin'!
