This was a gangster film that didn't work at all for me. All of the characters and scenes felt like recycled parts from other (better) films in the same genre. De Niro always chews the scenery well, but here, his talents seem squandered with a sub-par script and story.

Great movie! DeNiro delivers one of his best performances in this movie. I love that line, "the working man is the tough guy!"

Fairly underrated entry into the crime sub-genre that shouldn't disappoint if you're a fan of Goodfellas, Casino and the like.

The fact that someone is a terrific, legendary and highly talented and celebrated actor doesn't automatically make him a good director. That goes without saying. Robert De Niro is - as we all naturally know - among the best of the best when it comes to acting. I mean he is a pure genius.
He chose to make his directorial debut (as well as the only motion picture he has directed so far) out of the fine genre he was so familiar with (after playing Vito Corleone in Francis Ford Coppola's "The Godfather: Part II", David Aaronson in Sergio Leone's "Once upon a time in America", Al Capone in Brian De Palma's "The Untouchables", Jimmy Conway in Martin Scorsese's "Goodfellas" and so on...) that is, a gangster movie. Surprisingly he ended up directing a masterpiece, at least I think so. …
