Acerca de esta película

The Many Saints of Newark es la esperada precuela de la famosa y premiada serie dramática de HBO, Los Soprano. El joven Anthony Soprano crece en la tumultuosa era de los disturbios de Newark, y se convierte en hombre mientras gánsteres rivales comienzan a hacerse importantes y a desafiar el control que la poderosa familia DiMeo mantiene sobre la ciudad, desgarrada por el racismo. Atrapado en estos años de cambios se encuentra el tío que él idolatra, Dickie Moltisanti, quien lucha para administrar sus responsabilidades tanto profesionales como personales, y cuya influencia sobre el sobrino lo ayudará a convertir al crédulo adolescente en el todopoderoso jefe mafioso que luego conoceremos, Tony Soprano.

Calificaciones y opiniones

I usually enjoy movies from this timeline and setting but not this one. Performances and direction were good and very convincing but the plot and character development were very poor. Watched this movie for good 2 hrs and had no idea what was going on or what the story is trying to tell. Too many characters with no background build or check, yeah you can easily get bored with this one, very forgettable.

The single worst movie experience I have ever had. It was a horrible mess of a story. It has made me lose faith in cinema. The show references were utter garbage and just shallow. I remember my mother used to beat me with a spoon and I would rather go back to that than to watch this piece of trash again.

3 and a half out of 5. While I never saw The Sopranos TV show yet, I still felt this was a tense and scary look at rising crime in the 60s with different gangs. One thing that was interesting and tense was that some of these people killed others easily and not much security was around and when it seemed to be around it was during riots. There was a couple arrests in the film I think a couple however. . A interesting crime thriller prequel, one that tells Tony's story well more towards the end.
