Policiais da Máfia

To get the most out of this movie, you have to know what the entire premise is and who the actual mobsters were that were involved and which families they were from. It's harder to follow since they changed the names but this is exactly what happened. Gaspipe Casso, Joey Gallo, and they changed the name of both of the NYPD cops and the detective who led the investigation against them. Great mostly factual depiction of a classic mob story that has been discussed for years. In movies like these In less concerned about which actors are in it or what the budget was. I want a factual representation of what happened.

Somehow I just didn't buy almost anything in Mob Cops, from the characters to the plot. And I love me a good mob movie, they're my favs in general. It's not surprising that movies high up in the charts are often not actually great, but still disappointing when it happens. I like David Arquette sometimes, but his choices in movies sometimes leave a lot to be desired, like in this case. A lot of the dialog felt amateur to me, too obvious and "easy", if that makes sense.. A lot of the cuts were fast, which isn't always a bad thing, but in this case contributed to it feeling forced and disconnected since the story and acting weren't at the level. It was mildly entertaining for a late night, I suppose, but I can't really recommend it.

First off , Arquette as a heavy ? Are you serious ? Continually squinting his eyes , even when he's indoors .The script is utterly tedious and the awful voice over ( courtesy of Abeckaser and his badly fitted teeth ) . Think Saturday Night Live doing a comedic version of Tommy Di Vito ( Joe Pesci ) times X . It really is that bad . This is on a par with the equally awful " The Many Saints of Newark " . Archetypal stereotypes who , on several occasions you expect members of the cast to burst out laughing as it all appears to be a big joke on us ! " I don't like cops , especially dirty ones " . Take the dog out instead.

I remember that The Wolf of Wall Street gained a reputation as the movie with the greatest number of F-Bombs per square inch in history. Until now. The only time I ever heard more F & C Bombs than in this hour and a half was a day back in 1982 when my dad was putting an IKEA Wardrobe together. This movie doesn't have a strong story, and every single character was deeply unpleasant. It wasn't entertaining, just 90 minutes exposure to an experience of lives that have no redeeming features. I'm not sure what the director was wanting to tell us. Anyone with an Italian name isn't very nice? Now, I'm losing the will to live, trying to write enough words to tell you to give the film a swerve. 2 stars for the fact that it ends.

Hard to watch, worse to listen to.

After Scorcese and Chase this is poor fare. The bar is very high, and this failed to even graze the underside. Arquette is not suited to this type of role, too mid west, his moustache was Stalinesque and equally fake.

They should have got Sammy the Bull to do the narration. He has told this story well. At the very least he could have polished the script.

Why didn't they use the real names. The Gaspipe story definitely deserved a better telling, bigger budget and a more washed out video like palette. Lighting was uneven and clunky. The incidental music was woeful and needlessly intrusive.

Waste of time.
