I'll bet this was a bit like Killing Them Softly, another mob movie that felt like a million other mob movies. I had high hopes for KTS because I love Brad Pitt and I don't care what anyone has to say to that by way of snark. Man's delivered some great performances (The Assasination of Jesse James..., Moneyball, 12 Monkeys), but this was a rare miss for him.

it's actually pretty decent. nothing could compare to Killing Them Softly, which is a waste of film and everyone's time and god almighty himself.
also, Baron Munchausen is one of the greatest films ever but, im a dork.
