Decent indie movie ..worth a watch

Keeping in mind that this is a low-budget indie film about four young men from a poor neighbor trying to make something of themselves.

The dialogue is sketchy at some points, the acting isn't the best, and some of the fight scenes are laughable. But in all, it's a well done story of family and respect. The film is well directed and flows well with few slow spots. It's not Goodfellas for sure, but I enjoyed it.

Don't waste your time!

This started off bad, couldn't get past 15 minutes of this crap! The dialogue is terrible and Joseph D'Onofrio is a wannabe actor!

Not Bad

My wife rented it for me and I never heard of it, wasn't bad at all I recommend all new yorkers or mafia movie lovers to see. If you liked Bronx Tale you may enjoy this one. The characters played some good parts and it was worth buying for $6.99 for my collection

Honest Review

I'm a fan of independent film. Dialogue driven, character study pieces are where it's at for me. Some of the other posts are right: "Wannabes" isn't going to rival "The Godfather" for best mob film ever. On the other hand, "Wannabes" is a well-written and well-directed picture that has surprisingly good performances from every actor/actress. My problem with one of the other reviews:

Conor Dubin stands out as the only Irishman in a cast of Italians

Dubin is a Jewish last name, and as such has a dark complexion, not a traditional ruddy one of an Irishman. He doesn't stand out at all, rather, delivers a great performance.

This didn't win many awards, but it is deserving of a Saturday night with a bowl of popcorn. I found it for 7 bucks at Blockbuster and was pleasantly surprised to say the least! Highly recommended.

They took a shot

A nice little movie, that isn't as mobbed up as the sales pitch. Really a good story about a small family in a changing world, where clinging to the past isn't such a good idea no matter what side of the law you fall on. Strong performances by both Ray Serra and Joe Viterelli, and decent production values. 7/10
