Ratings and reviews

Put together in a shabby way! Can't help wondering what Ken Burns would have done. Too many talking heads, but extremely disappointing is that the main character ISN'T IN THE FILM! You don't ever get to hear a word from Whitey. That's ridiculous, and the film is revolving around his trial, but no footage! That main character is left out. Never even tried to talk to jurors or the lawyers!

Whitey was a rat 100%. Hasn't anyone seen Black Mass wit Johnny Depp? if not HIGHLY RECCOMEND u do!!! Especially if u like this

Well done…I wanted to be there for the trial, just for research as a film maker… The Depp movie came out, so, no real need…but this film, I think the reality of it…I appreciate…The vulgar society of federal and Boston cops being exposed…Makes you wonder if any other government agencies are dirty…(Congress)…Anyway, thank you...
