Mafia Inc

It does look like it does though, doesn't it? And for some it does - a lot. Now if you see that from the "outside", you do want in. You want to be part of it - well if "you" in that case would be in this movie of course.

If you have seen something like the Godfather, you will kind of know where this is going. And it has quite the ups and downs. A lot of characters and unlike the classic different spoken languages. But it all makes sense - and while there is violence throughout, it is especially one particular action scene towards the end that stands out.

Other than that it is the well known, do not trust anyone. Well maybe yourself ... but even that is something to carefully (re)consider. Good actors, strong solid story and quite a few twists and turns included.

Was surprised how good this was , thought it was going to be run of the mill gangster flick but it's much more than that ,great acting , great characters, good story it's hard to like any characters in this film as they've all got bad intentions, but I guess that's who they are and how they're made ,normally your rooting for the lead character in the movie but not in this case he's a real bad ass and you'll realise that in the first 10 minutes of the movie after he does a despicable act that's hard to watch , but don't be put off this is a great movie.

I love gangster movies . Without a doubt it's my favourite genre of films and TV.

Mafia Inc is a pretty good example of the genre without it actually pulling up too many trees .

The Gamache, tailors from father to son, have been dressing the Mafia family Paternò for three generation. Vince works on behalf of Frank the godfather with his eldest son Giaco. Vince seeks to earn his stripes by impressing the godfather.

This has more of the feel of a TV drama rather than a film. That's not a big criticism as there are some brilliant foreign language gangster tv shows such as Subbura and Gomorrah and this can definitely sit along side those .

It has a mixture of languages. Italian , French , Spanish and English and that does get a little bit annoying at times. I'm not sure what they didn't just do it all in Italian .

The storyline is really good but with one flaw .

The person who is portrayed as the hero figure , Vince , does something so despicable at the start of the film , I found it impossible to side with him. So you end up wanting them all to get what's coming to them . Maybe that was the plan ?

I think this would have benefited from having half an hour shaved off or it being a made into a series instead but I have to say I found it entertaining and very well acted .

Well made with usual mafia plot ie killing lots of people. Entertaining though with strong cast and not too far short of the Godfather.

I would say GOOD FELLAS instead of Francis Coppola's masterpiece, because of the biopic and vintage elements involved, with musics of the period which this film talks about. It remains excellent, gritty, bloody and very well acted too. I guess this is one of the best Canadian crime film ever; just guess because I don't know the film industry from Quebec. Anyway, it could hardly have been better.
