Yeah, this was a mistake after watching the last two films. It's really unfair to this one! What's more unfair as well is how I had to watch this on YouTube like An Elephant Sitting Still! Unfortunately for this movie, the subtitles worked better and had better streaming quality. Yeah, this one I don't feel the need to wear gloves for...

This film is kind of crap, honestly. It tries to be like The Godfather and a bunch of other gangster films, but the editing in this is choppy as hell. I feel like this was made with a cardboard camera caked in cheap crud or something. Every scene in this film is unique in that it all looks like it was taken from a different shitty camera. Some scenes look like they are out of a documentary, some look like they were made in a warzone, and some are so scratched to hell it's distracting!

The acting is fine and the main dude has a lot of range, but there are so many other characters that I couldn't latch on to any of them. I got so bored, and the only things in this that I liked were two explosions, a house getting destroyed, and a paint fight in the streets.

I will never have any idea why this keeps floating around and being in the Top 250...

Fun but really, really messy!

I have three films left in the Top 250 now. I will be making my list sometime in December after ordering how I want these movies to be.

Look out for it!
Mini Review: Watched this after two stronger films. Unfair comparison, but still rough. Had to stream it on YouTube, oddly better subs than the movie itself. It tries to be The Godfather but the editing is choppy, like a cardboard camera caked in cheap crud. Each scene looks mismatched; documentary, warzone, scratched reels. Acting’s fine, lead has range, but too many flat characters. Only highlights: two explosions, a house wreck, and a messy paint fight.
