Just saw this tonight. Tom Hardy and James Gandolfini in his last role. All I can say is..... 
Not bumping "The Godfather" and "The Godfather II" from the top of my list of criminal movies, but this is well worth seeing.
Oh, and for those people who love pit bulls, you might find this to be one of your all time favorite movies.

Hold onto the ball, Murray!
Yeah, this was a fantastic movie. A bit heavy with Chekhov's gun, but it didn't bother me.

Truly, if you do love pit bulls you will like this movie.
Also, I would not be surprised if Hardy gets some Best Actor nominations for his role.
