Robert de Niro’s career was absolutely not distinguished in the films in the Mafia and/or Gangsters, but actress Barry Levinson’s Alto Knights. Inspired by a real story, sponsors Frank Costello and Vito Genovesis, friends who have become enemies, even a feature film published on March 19, allows the actor to play two roles.
And this leads Alto knights beyond his subject or reconstruction of New York in the 1950s and 60s, as he calls some of the great figures of Robert de Niro’s filmography … which was already linked to Frank Costello’s story, as the latter inspired Vito Corleon. What do the viewers of his new touch in the genre think written by the freedom screenwriter?
Of the 58 notes from 5 to 2.7, Alto knights are Barry Levinson’s less good film from Bandits (2.8) in 2002, and it began at the same level as the toys that came out in 1992, but too far from the rain man (4,2), his best rated opus. On the side of Robert De Niro, the feature film is currently in the same waters as red lights, and only behind Amsterdam and Malavita (2.8).
What do the “Alto Knights” think viewers?
“A very good movie, shot from a real story, to follow the film and with a very interesting Robert de Niro”Said James m5 to 5 stars give Alto knights, but there is no more accuracy in the actor’s game. Against this Martini (5 to 3): “The film is quite pleasant and grows with tension and interest, on the basis of correct reconstruction (especially very beautiful and many cars) and its actors from Nir.”
With the negative: “Its performance is pretty good, even though the makeup tons of two characters is going to differentiate, but we are still sorry that the role of Genoves was not offered Joe Pessch For example. “ And it echoes the written text Oats m. (5 to 3): “After adapting two Niro on the screen, somewhat long and talk, and sometimes confusing intrigue, the film finds its rhythm and allows itself to view, expand (short) action scenes, and even a pure person with Henchman’s suffering).”
“The film is growing with tension and interest, based on the right reconstruction and its actors, in mind from Nir.”
The booking that we find Nameless man (Same Note): “Robert De Niro has so many tricks that he has no longer offered when Alto Knights offer 2 roles at once, both with very caricatures. It is difficult to see Vito and Frank than Robert.
Or Jackpopopopot (3) that is a little more positive and an actor: “The result is mixed. The film is in length. Lots of time in the environment is affected and nothing is original here. Fortunately, the real facts based on the real facts lead to its well. As for Niro, it is impeccable.
“Last Baroud Honor for an Emblem Actor”
To the end, Motulorist (The same) sees it “The last bar for an emblem actor, which offers a sad performance that recalls the drop of past greatness. Billy atmosphere that is found in criticism Jean N. (5 to 2.5): “We are in an agreed mafia film, the most classic, where gangsters are less cruel than usual, but it is still long and too long.
Analysis that is close Cool_92 (5 to 1.5), eventually less excited, especially on the title: “Robert de Niro playing two gangsters and Barry Levinson behind the camera? Oh, yes, you want. But unfortunately we are no longer in the 90’s.
“The impression of attending a covenant film, but which does not really play its role that does not fill the viewer”
“And how to ignore the Bob de Niro Cloonsecal game? It could be the worst mistake of the movie, make it two different characters. They look like a lot and we don’t see anything else besides latex.
Briefly
Here is a film that is divided: some welcome its twilight atmosphere, not to mention the vow, and some criticize the classicism, which prevents it from measuring the genre of flagships, and Robert de Niro’s double performance (and makeup that is transformed by Vito Genovese).
And you? What do you think of Alto Knights?
