Review of Capone

Capone (2020)
3/10

Not sure what to make of this other than it's just like really kind of an embarrassment for most everyone involved, the source material is rife for interesting story ideas and potential conversations and sequences BUT (I'm sorry Josh Trank) this script is just baffling in the approaches it takes to every moment here I need to see Capone as a character to empathize with IN SOME WAY before I'm supposed to care when he has a debilitating stroke halfway through and is paralyzed and becomes even more primal.

I hate to say it but, it needed to be longer, get rewritten and reconstructed in general to even maybe be good. There's elements of "decent" here like everyone else says but its pretty much a mess of tones, performances, and editing... just to name a few things.
