The only manager who could be Tony is Big Phil Scolari. Arrigo Sacchi as Junior. Mourinho as Jonny Sack. Wenger as Father Intintola. Neil Lennon as Janice. Brendan Rodgers as Ralphie. Tim Sherwood has Christopher vibes. Completely unsuited to his job. Conte as Silvio. Diego Simeone as Paulie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Jude Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Went to see the Many Saints last night - loved it. I won’t say much until more folk get a chance to see it but I thought the casting was excellent and I liked how the story was cleverly interwoven with events of cultural significance. It’s got me in the mood for rewatching the series for the 5th time tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtual Insanity Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Also went last night and thought it was guff. All about opinions. Thin to no plot (and yet still has some considerable holes), actors doing exaggerated impersonations of their future TV characters, Michael Gandolfini an unconvincing young Tony. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy playing Silvio was basically just a caricature. All the call backs were entertaining but there was nothing original that stood up and Dickie Moltisanti wasn't a strong lead character. It also wasn't funny at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the general opinion will sway massively from shite to excellent, don’t see many people having an indifferent opinion of it. I thought the young Sylvio was a bit forced, although it’s such a unique character that it’s a near impossible task to replicate him. I liked Michael Gandolfini, I liked that he didn’t try and replicate the intensity and intimidation of Tony Soprano. Not many people could. He portrayed him as a relatively normal teenager that was eventually influenced by the mob and caused him to become the feared Mob boss. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 A good and very long article about why Sopranos has had such a presence over the last couple of years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergie's no1 fan Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Wasn’t totally enamored by the film and the twist is pretty obvious early on in the film for me. There was some good Leo DiCaprio meme moments when your pointing out certain things. I think I'm disappointed as I have been hyping this up for well over a year, a bit like I did with the Irishman. The only difference is the irishman gets better with every viewing, I don't feel the need to re watch this movie and I hope there isn't another one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bert Raccoon Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I actually really enjoyed it tbh, it's nothing groundbreaking but it was an enjoyable watch none the less. Silvio was ridiculous though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibby82 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Enjoyed it more on the second watch but would have been better as a series, with more scope to develop the themes and characters. They’ve tried to cram in so much into two hours the pacing is mental with a really thin plot line. As an addendum to The Sopranos it’s fun but as a stand-alone movie it’s pretty weak really. Another film would be good if we get to see more of young Livia who’s the best thing in the film by a mile and should have featured more. The actors who play Paulie and Junior play it right, understated which is what was required as to not become a cartoonish parody, like Silvio is unfortunately. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Went to see The Many Saints of Newark tonight. Quite enjoyed it in a low key way, more suited to streaming on tv I think. I can get why it would be a let down for Sopranos fans, it was more just trying to capture the feel of 60s New Jersey than anything like a plot, and hardly any mafia business. Pretty obviously a set up for prequal 2, with it finishing so early in the the timeline. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
