A terrific ensemble cast powers this fast-paced action-adventure based on the true story of the rise of organized crime in America. Mobsters traces the daring exploits of four close friends growing up in the 1920's New York: the charming "Lucky" Luciano (Christian Slater), the savvy Meyer Lansky (Patrick Dempsey), the headstrong "Bugsy" Siegel (Richard Grieco) and the diplomatic Frank Costello (Costas Mandylor). From their humble beginnings, they formed an impenetrable bond that led them to the top of the underworld in this visually stunning film co-starring the sultry Lara Flynn Boyle and Oscar®-winning actors F. Murray Abraham and Anthony Quinn.

TOMATOMETER®

Critics Consensus: Despite an abundance of style and some big names, Mobsters can't escape its empty plotting, numbing violence, and Gangster Movie 101 concepts.

Reviews

Southern Voice (Atlanta)

Terry Francis

A kiddie gangster movie that appears to have been cast by the Ford Modeling Agency, dressed by the editors of GQ, and written by the marketing department of some cheesy brokerage house currently under investigation.

FULL REVIEW

El Nuevo Herald (Miami)

Rene Jordan

Mobsters is of overwhelming violence, but also of insinuated elegance. [Full review in Spanish]

To say that production designer Richard Sylbert, costume designer Ellen Mirojnick and cinematographer Lajos Koltai give the settings a handsome, authentic look is like saying that the Titanic had nice chandeliers.

It is extraordinary that, with gangster-era America providing such a natural source of drama, director Michael Karbelnikoff should turn gritty reality into such an empty tale.

Although things like character development are sometimes lost in the crossfire, the lead actors have enough charm to sustain the film.
