With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Great for fans of mob stories and people who like stories about real, flawed people. A look inside a world of loyalty, money and betrayal. Same wavelength as Point Blank or Angels with Dirty Faces.
- The mood
- Thoughtful and character-driven.
- The pace
- Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- Made in 1928: an older pace and style.
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
After completing his prison sentence for killing a rival gang leader in self-defence, Benny Horowitz decides to go straight.
