Worst Film Adaptation Ever!!!

Rating: Null/10 (25 May 2001)

I love films that portray actual events in history, whether they are famous or just a very interesting story. And one area of fascination is the 1920's "Gangster Area". So I was naturally drawn to this film for its All-Star Cast and its relevance to my interest.
But this is by far the worst adaptation of real life events to the silver screen. There were numerous times that I almost turned the movie off and threw it out the window.
I know dramatization is need to make a successful film but they went too far in my opinion and distorted much of the facts of the time to make the film more interesting.
Other than its poor attempts to let movie goers in on some American History this is a good film. I recommend it to anyone who knows absolutely nothing about Al Capone or Elliot Ness. For everyone else I suggest not even looking at the box.
