Capone

Several reviewers have mentioned that this movie is hard to find. It is currently available on HULU.COM. Unfortunately you have to watch a few commercials, but the good news is that the copy is excellent. The characters are well developed and the pace is quick. While I would not say that the plot is overly realistic, it is worth watching. If you are looking for an engrossing, albeit brutal, diversion then this is the fare for you. Definitely NOT FOR CHILDREN. One of Sylvester Stallone first movie appearance and well acted by him. The other characters offer excellent performances as well. You will recognize many character actors in this ensemble cast. Hope you all enjoy this nearly classic mob movie.

This hollow if AND perversely UNwatchable exercise in self-annihilation builds to a violent finale that finally makes good on the biopic's sordid potential, as Trank shoots his way out of oblivion with a sequence in which Capone does the same. It's a climax that manages to blur the line between truth and legend, and to clarify Trank's ambition of making a movie about how one tends to infect the other.
