Forget about it,the movie is great!

Rating: 8/10 (6 December 2010)

Donnie Brasco is a terrific movie,very clever,with great plot and most amazingly it is based on true events.It is about a young FBI's agent going undercover in order to infiltrate in the mafia and succeeds in it very well.He actually gets "more" in the mafia lifestyle than he would like.First of all,he creates some close bounds with some people and especially with his mentor and protector,the so called "Lefty",a man who has been in the mob for his whole life,but is not respected that much,thing that makes him sick,as well as the fact that his son is a junkie.Also Donnie the more he gets into the mob,the more his family is being destroyed,as well as his marriage.To sum up,Donnie Brasco is a fabulous movie,with great plot,direction and superb interpretations especially from Al Pacino,Johnny Depp and Michael Madsen.The movie is about human relationships and the sacrifices some people are making in order to succeed in their careers even when it is harmful for their families.
