5 stars (Exceptional) Being a Ferrara flick, this is less a gangster flick and more a riff on fate, free will, good and evil dressed up in admittedly gorgeous genre. Follow up with RXmas and The Funeral for maximum effect ~msan
3 stars (Good Enough) Story line doesn't last the distance but Walken is close to top form. ~Tubbs
4 stars (Very Good) bit a underrated ~Wyatt Earp
