Tom Sizemore
Review
Witness To The Mob - A Review
Rather then glamorize the mob lifestyle, this movie portrays it more as a
dirty business where guys hide behind their so-called honor while they kill their friends and family. Tom is great in this movie. Both literally and figuratively, he's very big. Some reports say he gained at least 30 pounds, but it looks like at least forty or more.
As a very ambitious and flamboyant John Gotti, Tom gets to gesture wildly and yell a lot. He first appears half-way through the first part of this two part mini-series. This movie doesn't show much of the corruption reported in the media, and it has about one tenth the cursing as a Scorsese flick. I liked seeing Abe Vigoda, I had almost thought he had died or something. Several of the other cast members have appeared in other mafia related movies (GoodFellas and Casino).
Many thanks to Susan from ‘The Tom Sizemore Unofficial Fan Site, for the review. Susan also informed us that after being shown on US TV, the show was made availible via tele-sale for a limited time on video. We are still awaiting confirmation of international showing times.
