Way too short


Anyone else felt that this movie was painfully short and could of been a great biopic movie? Then again that's just my opinion but this film wasn't awful or anything but felt rushed too.

I agree.

The real life Kuklinski had a massive backstory that led up to what he became. This 10 million dollar movie omitted most of it.

Also, poetic license should have been taken to magnify the character "Dominick Provenzano", who in real life was Dominick Polifrone. For that character there should have been parallel character development with Kuklinski's, and an eventual crossing of paths of the protagonist and antagonist at some climactic point in the movie. For "Dominick Provenzano", Kuklinski's crimes should have been taken personally. This way Kuklinski's eventual bust, arrest, and conviction, would have been more climactic. Then the movie could end exactly the way it does in this movie, with Kuklinski crying and gritting his teeth.

This movie was on the right track, but about 50% of it is missing.
