Movie Reviews of Vendetta
Movie Review: From Gangs of New York to a Lynch Mob in New Orleans!
Summary: 4 Stars
This film is a forgotten contribution to public understanding of the history no history teacher wants to tell you. That is precisely why you need to see this movie. While it is not at the same quality level as "Gangs of New York" there are definitely highlights of quality work. Christopher Walken has a special style of playing villains. When you are ready to shoot him, you have to realize he just "got you." This is the mark of a real actor in a villain role. This is basically one of the most compelling stories of political corruption, and was the largest lynching in American history. Many good Italian American families suffered in the process.Movie Review: Attention to detail?

I enjoyed this film, but the someone should have told the propmaster that whiskey bottles at the turn of the century (the previous century) did not have barcodes!!Movie Review: Vendetta DVD Review
Summary: 4 Stars
This HBO film is based on true and tragic events, which is well-made and interesting. The DVD is in 1.33:1 aspect ratio with high quality picture and sound.Movie Review: Not as polished as it could have been
Summary: 3 Stars
Walken is a joy to watch, but the whole movie is bland. There is no cohesive feeling of a city and its people. We do not get a flavor of the population in and out of New Orleans. The violence is too contrived and meaningless. We see no real port, just a market where the central action takes place. This is a very low budget film and it shows. The history involved is not accurate.Movie Review: Not what I was looking for...
Summary: 2 Stars
I am a Christopher Walken fan and did a search using his name for movies he has been in that I might not have heard of. You know, a hidden, unseen by human eyes, jewel. To quote a famous guy "Dis ain't it". Chris makes a couple of good appearances but the movie is centered on corrupt politicians' attempts to lengthen their hold on the local economy by eliminating the competition through nefarious means.
If you're looking for more of Chris, I'd pass.
