this is not what you think it is this takes place right after Al Capone comes home from jail he's sickly and he's dying this looks at his demons, his sickness what his family goes through personally I do not recommend this movie it's almost like digging up the body and pissing on the grave. I don't recommend this movie at all I find it depressing very sad and depressing. What's even more shocking is I can't believe Tom Hardy would take this role. He's better than this.

I'm sorry to do it Mr. Hardy. But this is the WORST of your movies. I blame the writers and directors. A waste of a stellar cast. They could of went in a completely different way with it. I honestly had and have no idea what was going on. I get the play on Capone's diminishing mental state, but there was NO storyline what so ever. If you didn't know it was about Al Capone, you would never know.

Al Capone is rolling over in the grave over this total horrific POS. This film was so horrible, it made me really wonder how one could actually greenlight a project with such a weak and uninteresting plot. It's basically like a nightmare on elm street on LSD, in the mind of a man who was once a gangster but now has the diminished capacity of a 6 year old (at best). His neurosyphilis ate away at his brain over years and this story is basically a delusion in his own mind. No historical truth or significance. I only watched because I'm usually a big fan of Tom Hardy. But he was incoherent throughout the entire movie and quite frankly if he wasn't attached to the project, this wouldn't even have gone straight to DVD. Tom Hardy did try, but it was a catastrophe of a story from the first minute to the credit reel.
