Film was a great film showing you the ins and outs of a gang war but......

Rating: 8/10 (25 September 2007)

I do not see any creative genius in it at all. What am I saying? the director took the same approach to this film from another great American director, his name is Martin Scorsese in Goodfellas. Why was this film not as critically acclaimed internationally as this film? It had the same approach, all narrative from the main character, both the films had that one guy who always seemed like the obnoxious ring leader, both movies were based on a true story, both films were made into a movie from a book, both had a sick ending plot, both told the story from the middle, beginning, and then to the end. this film my have been influenced by Martin, but do not compare it to American films saying that this is fresh and new and something we could never produce.
