Falcone

As this show goes it's smart, funny and very sensitive to the audience. As I watch more and more I'm routing for the bad guys and actually like most of them. I know that is a little morbid but it's only a t.v. show. The acting is in place and Eric Roberts and Titus are standouts. It seems so real and very smart. This show deserves to be picked up for the new season. Give this show a shot if it stays on. I know I'll be looking for it. If you loved Goodfellas, Donnie Brasco, and just love mobster t.v. or movies this show is for you. Give it a chance. You will not be disappointed! Falcone the T.V. show gets 4 stars out of 4.

I think "Falcone"is one of the best mafia shows I have ever seen. I liked it a lot better than "The Sopranos". Falcone's story line about an undercover agent becoming part of the mob is lot more interesting to me than what "The Sopranos" offers. I found the most dangerous guys in the mob to be a lot more threatening in "Falcone" than the ones in "The Sopranos". I thought the casting for "Falcone" was excellent. Titus Welliver as Sonny Boy became more powerful as the series unfolded. His acting was brilliant. Eric Roberts is always welcome and was good in "Falcone". "Falcone" consists of 9 hours that was shown on CBS. I am only sorry that the series wasn't continued. Jason Gedrick as the undercover agent was very good and so was Amy Carlson, the woman who played his beautiful wife. I would rate "Falcone" right up there with "Wiseguy" (the one with the late Ray Sharkey) and also I think "Falcone" was as good as the movie "GoodFellas".

I've seen Falcone. I thought that the actors did a very good job presenting the characters. I looked forward to the next evening and what would be on it next. I hope they make it a series, since we truly do not know if Joe continued on the case. The actors made me feel as if I was part of the scene. I intend to purchase Falcone when and if it comes on video. It was a typical mob story but with a twist. One of the best mob stories as far as written, produced, directed, etc that I have seen.

I have seen the Sopranos and other mob-esque shows, but this show is first-class. The show is based on facts and uses emotionally charged characters, interesting plot, fluid dialog, and outstanding cinematography. I hope that it will be turned into a series. For those of you that didn't see it, you missed out.

I'm still hoping CBS (or another network) will bring Falcone back.

I've rarely seen such excellence as the understated performance Titus Welliver turns in as Sonny Napoli. What an expressive face! And great body language. He could carry the show by himself, but obviously the play off Jason Gedrick's Joe Pistone is key to the suspense.

Stay tuned. Maybe Falcone will return.
