The work, filled with a lot of references and characters from the Sopranos, will definitely make fans not indifferent. Another thing is that not everyone was revealed here and there was not very much time for this.
The series tells about the riots of blacks taking place in Newark, and then their clashes with the Italian mafia, which looks very convincing and forces you to join the screen.
The main character - Dicky Moltisanti (Christopher's father from the aforementioned series) - is one of the central persons of this picture. His acting skills are truly impressive.

The film itself in the first half was served relatively well, in some moments it was even protracted, but in general there is something to learn from it. The picture during the whole event pleases with references and scenes where you think about things. But the minor characters, it seems to me, are clearly poorly revealed.

The picture, where the stories from the series are revealed, there are obvious references that please the eye: graphics, plot - everything for me in this series is kept at a very good level. But since not all the characters were revealed and the film itself looks crumpled in moments -
