It kinda is like all the generic mafia documentaries out there. But it was better in that regard. Granted I'm a huge mafia fan so everything they talked about I already knew but it was still entertaining. The only thing that I was annoyed with was the guy Colin McLaren. He kept saying how he saw these types of guys when he was in mafia. He was never in the mafia. He went undercover as an associate but that was in Australia. That was a lot different than how it is done in the United States. Again, that's just me because I'm specific about those kinds of things but a lot of us mob fans are. I didn't love how they had Linda Scarpa and Larry Mazza on here though. I watched the Carmine Persico episode.

So ridiculous!
kbarcelon17 March 2024
This show is absolute b.s.. so much of what they say is exaggerated or untrue. Are we really supposed to believe that heavily Irish accented guy spent 3 years undercover in the Italian mafia? Give me a break.. horrible show and I don't recommend it to anyone... "sammy ran his head into people like a bull so they called him sammy the bull" 🤣🤣 or the part with Johnny keys "his wanted to be killed with his shoes off so his wife knows he was killed by a made guy".. also wrong.. it's hard to even take serious.. if you know anything about anything mafia related you would know this show is so ridiculous.
GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT

The RAT Sammy Graivano episode has so much mis-information it's laughable,or just faults information. I love how you present the rat. Also and most importantly you didn't tell how the rat killed a tennage kid and unlike you said the rat did sell drugs. John Gotti died as a man unlike when the rat dies. The death of Louis Milito was all from the rat. Had nothing to do with John Gotti. Get your facts straight!!!!!!!!!
WHO CARES!

They always leave out the part when on July 18, 1996, a Black fellow inmate named Walter Johnson punched Gotti in the prison recreation room, leaving him bruised and bleeding, because Gotti had disrespected him by calling him a racial slur.
People will say, oh, but Gotti was an old man. So what, Gotti was 56 at the time! Even if he were the same age as Johnson, he would have still lost. Gotti was a trigger man in his youth, not a fighter. If he was such a tough guy he would have at least fought back! He didn't do a damn thing; just sat there and licked his wounds! He never used a racial slur ever again after that beat down!
