The final product is an absolute mess of extremely violent spurts punctuating a boring series of clunky framing devices and Goodfellas-style narration. Go see that.'Įdited in a blender, this laughably bad biopic of the notorious John Gotti was mired in development hell over the last decade with something like 4 different directors and countless rewrites. 'How 'bout the movies? You like - you like - whassat movie you like so much about spaghetti, 'Meatballs' or sumn.

This film is nothing more than an bad autobiography brought to the screen by a man, who thinks he can play any role he wants. That film was great and told the story we wanted to hear. If you're looking for a good film on the Dapper Don, I suggest you go with another film named Gotti, produced in the mid-90s, starring Armand Assante. The bottom line here is that this film was boring, just a lot of talk in a really bad accent. The only thing he has in common with John Gotti is the same first name, and watching him try to play John Gotti was as bad as watching Ben Affleck try to play Batman. As for John Travolta, I really don't know what he was thinking with this film. Everyone wanted to see the story of the man, not the story behind the man, and especially in a format of flash-forwards and flashbacks. For a mafia film about one of it's biggest names in history, there is a distinct lack of violence or for that matter anything substantive. and who really cares about his actual family, there was a shitty reality show about that, what we really care about is his other family, and not the business side either. For starters, this film was all over the place! Was this film about John Gotti or his son?. Gotti, a highly anticipated new mafia movie centered around the Dapper Don, has been nominated for Worst Movie of the Year and unfortunately, I have to agree.
