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 have yet to be in agreement with the CRITICS who make or break a show. I, and everyone I spoke to that watched Falcone thought it was an extremely well cast and played series. All of us were excitingly hoping it would become a weekly series. I think this series, especially while not being shown on PAY TV, where the x-rated language would have had a more definite impact on todays audience, still gave us a dramatic look into the world of "WISEGUYS" and GOODGUYS. As for Joe Falcone, played by Jason Gedrick, I know guys who look like high schoolers who are in his field. Titus Welliver was excellent and Lillo Broncato was superb, as was Sunny Marinelli. When isn't Eric Roberts right on. The remaining cast were all to be congratulated. I know Falcone has been compared to the highly acclaimed Sopranos, which I never miss and am addicted to, but take away the language and who knows where that show might be.

Rreally liked this show,no, it's not the Sapranos,it's not the Godfather,it happens to be a "semi-fictional account" of life inside the mob as told by an FBI agent who actually lived his life with these people,.of course he could not put everything in with the time cbs gave him, but I think Mr. Pistone did a fantastic job considering I've only heard the other side of the story, but have seen nothing like this! The truth may not be stronger than fiction,but with the time limit he had to deal with, I think Pistone did a great job, the actors were too pretty,"but that only helped" I suggest you read the book, if you've seen the series, before you review this show,you may just want to take a second look!!!!

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.
