Sins (2012)
1/10
IT'S IN THE PAST
2 June 2019
Warning: Spoilers
This is a film about redemption, particularly of two bad men. It starts out as our two bad guys meet on a train and freely open up about each others criminal past. Leonard (Danny Glover) is now a priest. He was a gang leader who killed a man. Davide (Giovanni Martorana) is now a blind man who was in the middle of a poorly scripted mafia war in Sicily with one side headed by the greasy haired Don Mancino (Michael Madsen).

From this film we get these words of wisdom, "Easy money does not exist," and "Marry a dumb young chick." Madsen as an American tries to take over Sicily by using "Remember Troy, the horsie?"

The dialogue was poorly written, so the lines could not be delivered by seasoned actors. It was a very boring film with the flashbacks adding to the "please get on with it" attitude I developed watching. The movie seemed to be closer to a failed college experiment, than serious film making. A mafia war film that will be sure to waste 90 minutes of your life.

Parental Guide: F-bombs (two languages) brief bed scene, no nudity.
