Movie Reviews of Gotti: The Rise and Fall of a Real Life Mafia Don
Movie Review: Sold As New But Wasn't
Summary: 3 Stars
I dont believe the item I bought was fit into new status. All DVD's have some sort
of plastic packaging and or security labels. This did not. If I wanted used I could
have saved a few bucks instead of paying into the new classification.
Summary of Gotti: The Rise and Fall of a Real Life Mafia Don
JOHN GOTTI ROSE TO FAME AS THE DON OF ONE OF AMERICA'S LARGESTCRIME FAMILIES. HE CLIMBED TO THE TOP OF THE CORPSES OF ANYONEWHO STOOD IN HIS WAY. BASED ON THE TRUE STORY OF THE RISE & FALL OF A REAL-LIFE MAFIA DON.A very impressive treatment of the rise and fall of New York crime boss John Gotti, this made-for-TV movie succeeds in large measure because of the outstanding work of Armand Assante (I, The Jury, Mambo Kings) as Gotti. Assante creates a complex portrayal of a man loyal to the mob while struggling with personal demons and his own self-destructive ambitions. The film traces the dapper don's rise through the ranks of the Gambino crime family, first through the patronage of his mentor (Anthony Quinn) and then through a brazen assassination of the Gambino boss. Eventually Gotti's world crashes around him as his arrogance over beating the government at trial and his thirst for the limelight causes a rift with his right-hand man, Sammy "The Bull" Gravano (William Forsythe). Gotti boasts terrific New York City locales and a truly impressive cast, including standout work by Forsythe and Quinn. But it's Assante's movie all the way, and he makes the most out of a larger than life character by making him seem no more, and no less, than human and flawed. --Robert Lane
