Isa B Armand Asante gives an outstanding performance in this made-for-cable gangster biopic on the former boss of the Gambino Crime Family. A great cast, a lovely original score by Mark Isham and a nice overall soundtrack. Anthony Quinn, Dominic Chianese, Frank Vincent, Vincent Pastore, Tony Sirico and the list goes on and on. This is actually one of my all-time favorite gangster films even with its budget limitations. It does have a made for television kind of look, but that takes nothing away from the quality of the film. I base my high praise for Gotti on the well written screenplay, the acting, the music and that authentic New York feel. Michael Franzese, a former capo in the Colombo Family, said this film is the most authentic Italian-American mob films ever made and he is certainly qualified to make that statement. I love this movie and I highly recommend it. 87/100 Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/06/25 Full Review robert b One of the most realistic movies ever Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/24 Full Review jon c The true story of one of the biggest gangsters in America directed by Robert Harmon presented by HBO Pictures John Gotti played Armand Assante rises to head the powerful Gambino crime family before being convicted in 1992 of racketeering and murder Starting in 1973 Gotti is the head of an old mafia crew but wants to break a few of the family rules Being known as the Dapper Don for his expensive taste in suits, and the Teflon Don because none of the FBI charges against him will stick He slips through like cracks through the wall ruling an empire Life is good, but suspicion creeps in, and greed, rule-breaking and his high public profile all threaten to topple him There's so much talking in this Yet Assante really brings John Gotti to life as he makes his way from transaction to transaction seeming untouchable Sooner or later every king falls from his throne Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member There is nothing wrong with this movie.. it’s amazing.
