The Iceman Confesses: Secrets of a Mafia Hitman

A surreal experience watching this film. The lack of emotion was especially eye opening.

A cold blooded killer caught on camera.

I prefer the original 1992 documentary compared to this one. A lot of the material is simply repeated in a dramatic fashion, giving everything a less gritty feel. Kuklinski is also more open (which chips away from his unsettling demeanor), but I did really enjoy the segment about Mr. Softie. A hitman who poses as the good ol' icecream truck man. Genius. Also, to all you idiots who think banning guns is going to cut down on murders - yeah, go talk to Kuklinski.

Kuklinski was a narcissitic pathological liar who probably killed, raped, and otherwise fucked up a few people, but he certainly wasn't capable of committing many of the crimes he confesses to. It is fascinating watching this low level crook smugly tell implausible story after implausible story.

Basically the same as the one from 10 years earlier but with some unnecessary melodramatic moments, some odd creepy smiles from Richard, and a very annoying misuse of the word ironic from the narrator. But even after all those problems, it's still sad to see a great man imprisoned for trying to solve the worlds overpopulation problem.

A dimwit boasts and brags about his past deeds. Clearly he has no conscience and it shows here. I wasn't chilled to the bone just depressed knowing shitheads like this are breathing the same air as the rest of us.

A unnecessary less good retelling of the same stories from the previous documentary with a few new ones mixed in. There is some depth added in but as a whole this one didn't need to be made.

Some of it feels like a rehash of the superior "The Iceman Tapes" from 1992, but it's still largely a pretty amazing watch that adds some welcome layers of depth to the story.

Ray Winstone should do more docudramas. He's really good in this!
