A friend of mine suggested I see this movie. I understood why she did after seeing it. The lead actor blew me away. He had incredible presence. I love the bad boys. Especially ones that can make you root for them. I thought the movie sent a very nice message of what is really important. I will be watching out for William DeMeo. I really enjoyed watching him from the opening scene. The scenes with his father Armand Assante were very good. I felt the compassion they felt for each other. Assante still has what it takes. The scene where he rips into his son towards the end of the movie is breath taking. I thought the movie had enough action for the story told and I felt all the supporting characters were very believable. If you are a fan of this genre. You won't be disappointed. I will be looking out for the future films of this director Paul Borghese.

I began watching this movie (but could NOT finish it) because of the title and some of the cast. Some. The others I had no idea who they are, still don't.

This movie is told mainly by a macho voice over. The male lead is an over the top (WAY over) macho guy. He's sadly laughable.

The opening scene is in a cemetery which for tells how bad the makeup is going to be. It's laughable. Again, sadly, everyone looks as if they were made up by a mortician's assistant - who's going to be fired on Friday. And you get to see a lot of it because this director loves his close ups. Close ups of faces and boobs. Yep. A classy movie. Not.

And the music is loud. Not good and and loud. Just loud.

This is one of those movies that has some excellent actors in it - why they attached themselves to this project, I have no idea. I'm just glad I cut my losses.

Now that I think about it, 2 stars are too many. Going down to one.

As always - make your own decision, but this is soooooooo bad.

This movie could have been so much better. It had a decent cast and a good(not great) storyline. It was terribly over acted. Everyone was trying to be so dramatic in a film that was better suited to be an action film. The problem was , there wasn't any action. So a runtime of just under 2hrs felt like 4hrs. It dragged along complicated storylines that overlapped flashbacks & flashfowards. Unsatisfactory ending after a long buildup. It had just enough to keep you from turning it off. But not worth a rewatch.

Wow! After watching William Seinwels aka DiMeo's nose cover the screen in Gravesend, I stumbled upon this horrible film. Basically, it combines poor writing, poor directing, good cinematography, and lots of bad acting. Copy cat themes seem to run throughout the film without any cohesive storyline. Armand Assante and Kathy Moriarity do their best , but come off as bad as the rest of the amateur cast. Seinwels leads the way with another poor acting job. Seems he's the same in every film. His raspy inarticulate delivery combined with his beating up people and scoring chicks is his MO. Good locations and camera work help, but this one is beyond help. Please stop making mob movies. The genre is finished.

Do not bother. This is such a bad movie. Paul Borghese and William Demeo cannot act. The script is cliche and copies every mob movie out there.
