Review of Gotti (2018) by Alysia R — 16 Jun 2018
Loved this movie! I cannot believe this was only in 2 theaters and only one 10pm showing for the day (here in the Upstate of SC)! Travolta, and the other actors, did a fantastic job! The camera angles and lighting effects at times were amazing with casting Travolta as Gotti! Loved the flashbacks with the time eras and mixture of music genres, as well as news clips! It is a shame the "critics" aren't flocking to this movie with positive reviews, because it deserves awards! The authenticity of the actual Gotti family being involved with this project and with Travolta for almost a decade is amazing! Supposedly this is too "pro-mob," but it's a BIOGRAPHY being portrayed.
... but let's not praise real life, let's praise the "Sopranos" and "Scarface," and how many other movies about gangs, prisons, mobsters, ect., ect.? (I have nothing against the "Sopranos" and "Scarface," but "Gotti" deserves praise, positive reviews, and awards!!!) GO SEE THIS MOVIE! Rated "R" mostly for bad words, and violence.
.. most of the violence is shootings no worse than on daytime tv!
