Overall, lovers of drama and crime will delight

Overall, lovers of drama and crime will delight in this family story about honour, loyalty, and possible betrayal among a pair of brothers. It's a slow-paced story that's primary goal is to build tension and surprise, and for the most part, I felt the film did this wonderfully. Moving slowly, it builds to a strong conclusion and unexpected finale, which felt quite rewarding and touching. Kirk Douglas as the lead is once again amazing, but sadly I didn't find his performance overly new, especially when compared to some of the actor's previous work.

I'm a huge Kirk Douglas fan and he

I'm a huge Kirk Douglas fan and he tries, he definitely tries. However, this movie really never gets going and the forced Italian accents are, well, forced. The production and direction are there, but the story and pacing aren't.
