This film has a very hard edge to it that I found got a little tiresome after awhile. It's a story about 1920s gangster "Dutch" Schultz and his cronies. It features no- name actors who aren't bad but are a notch above top quality in their profession.
The actors may not be top-grade and well-known, but the cinematography is Grade A all he way. It's beautifully filmed and very stylish in parts. I saw this on tape but would prefer to see it on a widescreen DVD version but that hasn't been issued yet as of July, 2006. The visuals are among the best I've seen for a crime film - at least up to the mid '90s, and the main reason I still gave it '7' stars. I see another reviewer has revealed why this is so-well filmed: the photographer is Janusz Kaminsky, one of Steven Spielberg's men.
The bad part of this movie is too much yelling back-and-forth between low-life characters. This may be a treat for the eyes, but not the ears.
