Format:DVD
This 1975 version of the Capone story is fast, and authentic. It has some shocking action, which is depicted very realisticly. It is more blood thirsty than the Rod Steiger version, but it is more believble. My one complaint is the sound quality. I had to put the volume up and at one point subtitles, this is more to do with the way Ben Gazzara delivers his lines. He has a cigar permanently in the side of his mouth and cotton woll in his jowls, well... it worked for Brando! Oh and watch out for a young Sly Stallone as Frank Nitti!

When I got this video, I was expecting it to be trash like all the others. Wrong. This film is wonderous. Susan Blakely-a great performance as the feisty Iris Crawford, Harry Guardino's wonderous performance as Johnny Torrio, Sylvester Stallone-best known for his Rocky films-does a great back-stabbing, trechorus Frank Nitti, and Ben Gazzara-My God! He was ultimatly the best screen Capone ever.I love this film. I would reccomend this to anyone who saw-and liked-The Untouchables with Robert De Niro.

The film is wonderful. A biography-cum-action film with some great stunts. Sylvester Stallone,despite this being one of his first starring roles, was utterly fantastic as Frank Nitti. The (then) 25 year old Susan Blakely was a wonderful love interest for Gazzara. Harry Guardino's Johnny Torrio was faultless, and Ben Gazzara was the best screen Al Capone ever (after Robert De Niro).Absoulutly wonderful.

Ben Gazzara was one of the finest actors of the 1970's and in this biopic he gives a more than excellent performance as Al Capone with convincing dialogue and action

Great, great movie. This was actually the first mob movie I saw, and it was class. Sly Stallone-a posionous, back-stabbing tratorous snake as Frank Nitti, Susan Blakely as a firey... Read more
