Ok, a low budget gangster movie, but who asked?
Brilliant acting (Kirsty Mitchell sounds like an angel), Marc Warren plays his charakter with a cool temperament, and the most important thing on this movie is: it transports you an another era...

OK Gangster Movie.......2004-06-23

This movie is only OK compared to others that are available. It is hard to understand in places because of the English accents. Much less violence than in most gangster pics.

If you a fan of either gangsters movies or Al Capone this you make think is the right movie for you. WRONG! This movie has nothing to do with Al Capone. All it's about is three guys from Liverpool, England and they try too go into bootlegging and Boxing. When I rented out from my local rental store I thought I would like it, being a fan of both gangster movies and Al Capone. I was bored to tears. The film is boring. If you still want to know if Al Capone is acuterly in it then he is, but only after forty five minutes and doesn't make many apperences. Besides he looks nothing like Al Capone and they didn't even try too make an effort, unlike the Untouchables. The story isn't even remotely accurate, they don't even think of putting the real names of Capone's real henchmen in. This isn't realy a gangster movie, I've seen pletly of them to be able to tell you that. It' s more like a boxing movie. Thats all the film boils down to. A man who goes to what looks like Chicago but looks more like London or even Glasgow, and goes into so called bootlegging by selling 3 bottles of gin. He then somehow goes into boxing and then Al Capone's son is kiddnapped by a dwarf gangster,the boxer saves the day and steals one of Capone's so called henchmen's girlfriend. They move to Texas and live happily ever after. Sure it's sounds an ok story to you but I hate it. Don't waste you money on it. If you want to a proper gangster and it's to do with Al Capone and is true, then you should see Al Capone 1959 with Rod Stieger. Its a hell of alot cheaper and worth it money.

Product Description

They fixed the World Series. They built Las Vegas. They terrorized America with their vicious murders and fearless robberies. They are men named Bugsy Siegal, Al Capone, John Dillinger, Pretty Boy Floyd, and Lucky Luciano. And, for the first time, THE AMERICAN GANGSTER tells the true story behind their ruthless rise to wealth and power. Filled with vintage film and actual photographs, THE AMERICAN GANGSTER is a gripping look at the birth of organized crime. From prohibition to prostitution, from gangland massacres to gambling empires, their most infamous deeds are chronicled in shocking detail. Even more explosive than the movies they inspired, such as Scarface and The Godfather, are the true histories of the brilliant, brutal gangsters who turned the American Dream into an ongoing nightmare.
