Lucky: I've been busy.

I think this movie should have a higher rating., 10 June 2002
Author: martymaster (martymaster@hotmail.com) from Fredrikstad, Norway

This is a good mafia movie,with good story telling,good acting and good atmosphere.I really enjoy mafia movies,and therefore I think this movie is underrated.The story is not unlike other mafia movies,about robbing each other and killing everyone in the way,but off course with class. Highly underrated,good movie.
