Witness to the Mob is a bit long-winded film about John Gotti's right hand Sammy 'The Bull' Gravano.

One of the most remarkable things is that Nicholas Turturro looks precisely like the real Sammy Gravano. And he plays the role better than most other actors did. But Tom Sizemore isn't very convincing as John Gotti. Actually he is a great actor, he was fantastic in Heat, Black Hawk Down and Play It to the Bone, but this was just not the role for him. Armand Assante did it much better than him, in Robert Harmon's Gotti.

The story is too simple but still interesting. If you want to know more about John Gotti and his gang, try to catch this film. It's kind of enjoyable.

RATING: 5,5/10
