Probably the worst movie of 2018, and maybe the worst mobster movie ever made. Gotti has one of the most baffling production crews I have ever come across: It is directed by Kevin Connolly (E from Entourage), made and distributed by five different production companies and has 39 producers listed in the end credits.
Where do I even start with this? The storytelling is completely incoherent. The direction has no clear style. The characters are merely generic mobster guys with names you forget almost immediately. The actors spend more time on their Italian accents than they do their actual characters. The music choices felt completely out of place. The movie virtually yada-yadas its way through the story, and with no clear characters, becomes impossible to get invested in.
Trivia: John Travolta had to ironically wear old-age makeup to play John Gotti, despite the fact that Travolta was already 3 years older at the time of making this film than Gotti ever lived to be.
