I think 99% of the population wanted this to be a great movie so fooled themselves into thinking it was.
For me it was just cold and dull. i suspect if the names had not been in it then it would have not even been mentioned.
Nothing here we haven't seen a million times before but better.
The inclusion of the JFK stuff was ridiculous.
Never being a fan of the director i never expected to much.
It should never have been tried to make these actors shine ...they are well too long in the tooth to be gangsters.
The great Steve Graham was as bad a case of miscasting as you will ever see.
I didn't want to review like this but it's honest.
I gave it 5 but would have been a 6 or 7 at the theatre as its where movies should be watched....not on a tv or a tablet or a phone.
Great chance missed.
