For a Film that is most obviously done on the cheap, this has to be one of the greatest Mob movies of the late 90s, Besides Casino. The Characters are Very believable and the Acting is superbly done. The Storyline is excellent too. Burt Young as the Boss of Bosses is superb and gives you a very believable character. You could make comparisons to true Mob stories in this film too. I.E: Gotti and his suits and the Capo Jonny Boy strikes a strong resemblance to old Johnny Boy himself, god rest his soul.

The only gripe I have with this film is the female actress playing the main character, Tony's Girlfriend. It does put a downer on the film when you have superb actors in superb locations and you have this actress whom I personally dont think has the abilities of the rest of the cast.

Anyways, definitly rent this Movie, it is a definite must for Mob fans and don't be put off with the Low budgetness because this definitly sits nicely alongside Goodfellas, Casino and quite possibly Godfather 2.

Was this supposed to be a gangster film? Correct me if I'm wrong but, how many black "GANGSTA'S" have there ever been that could speak to real Made Men like Snipes character does. If that was real life Snipes would have surely been shot between the eyes at least for even atempting to take control of a massive drug empire. These things would NEVER happen. C'mon give us Mob fans a break. And what the hell was Ice-T doing in this film. He looks like an over exaterated Pansy. And Judd Nelson looks like a total knob head as the "toy Mafiosi" cop. If you take my advice all you MAFIA FILM WATCHERS. *****************WARNING!******AVOID AT ALL COSTS***********************
