Al Pacino should have won an oscar for this.And Johnny Depp--although he doesn't look that Italian--was excellent, too.His role is very similar to Leo Dicaprio's role in 'The Departed.'I thought Deppp was better by a hair, but they were both good.Pacino is the man, though.I know guys here in Queens just like his character--always losing bets, never having money, always unhappy.He really nailed it.Really fun to watch.

Good movie.Well acted by Depp and the usual by Pacino.The plot is pretty predictable, but since it's based on a true story, I can overlook that shortcoming.Worth watching once or even twice.
