Although violence is rare throughout the film until its final minutes, it is extremely graphic and realistic sometimes to the point where it can even disgust the most desensitized viewers.Ī man is repeatedly stabbed in the neck with a pen with up-close shots of blood squirting out before he is then kicked and punched on the floor. This is one of the most violent and visceral mob films ever made, and that is an understatement. The film is full of brutal and sometimes disgusting depictions of violence, non-stop language, some tame sexual content and drug use. The film partially gives incredibly detailed insight on how this crime operates in such a business, and partially the story of its rise and fall.
