Man…Dickie wasn’t a drug addict. Spent the entire movie waiting for him to get high and it never happened. He died with the pills he picked up for Livia, and she spread the rumor that he was an addict. That was the biggest “hoooooo” moment for me.
Ikr!
same, I am surprised more YT channels Or mainstream entertainment channels haven't highlighted that part of the plot in MSoN. I feel that was an important part of Livia's toxic state of being, AKA as being WACKADOO.
Topical
Yeah, that pissed me off!! lol
Fuckin crazy
When the ending happened and the sopranos theme came on…. Chills
YES!!!! LOVED THAT ENDING!
and then they ruined it with Harold
OMG I CLAPPED DUDE and Christopher’s “and this is the guy I went to hell for” OMG BRO
@@creed22solar123 No they didn't, they made it better with Harold, cry harder.
I loved that part! Totally agree!
Chase has expressed interest in producing a sequel to The Many Saints of Newark that follows Tony Soprano in his 20s, provided he could collaborate with former Sopranos writer Terence Winter.. Upon hearing this, Winter replied he would do it "in a heartbeat. Absolutely."
That would actually be really good because I feel like this movie had way too little of him, as well as pretty much everything else
@@MrTony-rx7tk this was a Dickie story... not really about Tony.
@@ElTigreEsq The storyline just wasn’t good. It could’ve been a great movie but it wasn’t. It was really disappointing.
I feel David threw The sopranos name in the mudd by making this movie. They should have done a series instead of a movie
@@anthonytesta1755 David is a fan of anti climax thats why the movie is dry and cold because that’s how the life of mobsters can be
I don’t think he wanted this movie to be anything grand like casino
He wanted to be dry and cold and stale because he doesn’t want us to idolize mobsters or admire them
it shows what they really are
psychopaths
Dickies uncle was quick to sniff out that he was lying about HOW his father & his goomah died. That’s why he told Dickie to stay away from Tony or he would’ve ended up killing Tony too. Which is ironic considering that it’s Tony who kills Dickies son, Cristopher. David Chase is a genius for that.
That is interesting perspective, I didn't immediately pick up on that... This movie was amazing
Facts
That and how Junior is such a crybaby when it comes to dickie. I wasn’t ready for that to be honest. At least not Junior.
good call. he almost sarcastically said Dickie has a lot of tragedy around him as if he knew...
@@RR-lv3tp you must’ve not been a fan of the series because this movie was terrible.
It was ridiculous.
The best part was when Tony's dad shot his mom's hair lol.
The scene in the sopranos when they talk about that happening makes me chuckle.
I WAS MAD BUT HAPPY I wanted to always see how that story Janice told went but NO FEECH CARD GAM ROBBERY??? Cmon even during filming leaks people mentioned it
I laughed out loud at that part
@@beatlefan-ym4pz it sure as hell made livia shut up 🤣🤣
No one in the car reacted negatively to the gun noise, Olivia could still hear. It was really badly done;
Junior: He doesn't have the makings of a varsity athlete.
Dickie: Nah...nah he kinda does idk.
*Bang*
It's done
Junior: Good.
You may run New Jersey but you don't run the varsity football tryouts
Saw that coming a mile away. Junior didn't shoot Dicky. Who was the shooter?
@@maxreichert8050 the cop
We need a sequel
Junior even answers to those he respects..too bad nobody has that kind of respect anymore…
For those that think its out of character for Junior to kill him. I couldn't disagree more, and its in character a lot. He did NOT just kill him because of that joke, which some mistakenly think. I think they executed it a little sloppy so it leaves a lot of confusion. Makes me wonder if there were scenes that were cut for whatever reason and it feels it doesn't all fit. But reality is, Dickie was a RISING star, and Junior was becoming extremely resentful of this. Much like he was with Tony in the show. We could argue a lot of reasons why Junior tried to kill Tony. Reality is, Tony was a threat to Junior power. That was the ultimate reason. Everything else was him justifying doing it. Junior is extremely vindictive, petty, and insecure.
When Johnny came out of prison, and he bashes Junior while singing praise of Dickie. Dickie was in prime position to overcome Junior. So Junior eliminated him before he could basically. And had the 'perfect timing' with the conflict with 'Harold'. So it could be assumed he was responsible. Junior is constantly being underestimated. He's very sneaky like this.
Your take is totally SPOT ON!
I don't agree with the threat to his power. IMO it was definitely him killing Dickie for all the times he humiliated him and feel less. It's a typical Junior move.
Even after Dickie died, Junior was never the boss, he never had power.
I Agree with you 100%
@@loki76 yup. Like he definitely was jealous of Dickie cause they put that in the movie for a reason the scene of johnny yelling at junior for not rising up like Dickie but I don't think that was the main reason at all for junior putting a hit on Dickie but cause Dickie laughed at him was the last straw.
The movie hint at jr the whole time
Tony mom saying he only listens to dickie
Tony dad getting on jr for not stepping up like dickie did and he was younger
We all know how jr felt for tony mom but even tony said he see how she looks at dickie
The funaral scene
The most authentic part was Mustisanti narrating half way through his speech he says "Neil young landed on the moon"
Quasimodo predicted all of this
I didn't even notice, but yeah that's on brand, lol.
@@josephflanigan3649 his apartment looked like shit
The sacred and the propane
he was an interior decorator
U can hear the saltiness in Chris’s voice when he talks about Tony 😂😂😂😂
Yeah man I notice that.
For the people that doesn't get it , this movie was an interpretation of who made tony soprano the boss that we know in the tv show , it has been clear that's Dickie who inspired him to become a mobster after seeing him dead , 2 minutes before dickie's death tony said that he would not like to be part of anything related to him , but when he saw him in the funeral his vision changed . Dickie's Uncle said to him that he have to stay away from Tony to protect him from himself , in the scene where tony was waiting for him at 9 o'clock it's the same restaurant where tony has been shot in the last scene of the show . In the movie Tony was in College and in the tv show they said that tony drop out from college to join the family business . Obviously this is what happened and this is where Tony Soprano has been made by Dickie Moltisanti like the movie poster said (WHO MADE TONY SOPRANO) . (English is not my native language , sorry if there's any mistake).
Yeah we all understood that but overall the movie sucked because of the casting and the storyline.
@@anthonytesta1755 Silvio was a disgrace, marketing confused almost all viewers who thought this was Tony’s story, the riots took up half a movie and led nowhere, why wasn’t Howard clipped in the movie nonsense and the entire plot line with his dads guhma was dumb and made zero sense
@@LordDarshdan the guhma is Christopher's biological mother. Dickie said in the movie that his wife JoAnne couldn't have kids
No apologies needed understood you clearly
How does seeing your uncle that just blew you off, dead in a casket make you do a 360 and decide to join the mob?
I had no idea Junior killed Dickie. That poor cop was telling the truth!!
Junior sanctioned the hit, the dirty cop was more than likely the trigger man. They both got what they deserved in the series with Junior becoming senile and the dirty cop getting smoked by Christopher
@@1god2fear21 cop had nothing to do with it. Tony Soprano is pathological liar and will lie to achieve any means.
@@wraynephew6838 it's unsure if he did or didn't, but you are correct Tony did this to manipulate Christopher in order to obtain his undying loyalty, which worked 👌
I liked the film but it should've been an entire 10 or 13 episode season.
David Chase works much better in long format storytelling and the film is just too limited to tell a proper full story.
Very well said!!!!!!
Agreed. I liked the movie too but there's a lot more story telling to be done so hopefully there will be a sequel.
Junior at the end staring at the casket: "Reminds me of peoples feet."
Reminds me that people talk a lot…people leave before you even realize it…”your father, your girlfriend…”
So no where in the movie did I feel like Dickie takes tony under his arm like Tony does to Chris.
Exactly. I noticed there was 20 minutes left and I was like, wtf when does he become the father figure? We’re cutting it close…. Dickie’s suddenly dead. Tony’s waiting in the restaurant. Then at the funeral. A quick and dirty pinky promise and bada boom bada bing, it’s over. Also…why have Ray Liotta play two characters? Fricken weird.
@@tbaymufon6448 Yea right it seems like as if they are close ,But u don’t get that feeling at all they literally have a couple scenes with eachother and act like he’s the father figure I didn’t believe there relationship.
I agree with you but you also got to take into consideration when Johnny was gone he was there for him. Tony’s mom said he only listens to him. A good point at the end shows him hating Dickie which shows why maybe at times Tony was so hard on Chrissy
Movie was bad ass
@@tbaymufon6448 I mean David Chase does have a knack for doing this. If you watched the original Sopranos Dan Grimaldi played twins Patsy and Philly Parisi. Maybe he wanted to do something similar here by making Liotta play twins.
This movie brought back so many cool memories of the sopranos series. it was tons of "Oh shit that's so and so!" moments. Well done Michael, your father would be proud of you. There is definitely going to be a sequel to this prequel.
I bet there ain't. Have you seen the reviews?
@@paulies5407 I haven't not good?
@@jurassicsushi this might be the only good one I've seen not many fans
There should definitely be a sequel to this to show the rest of the characters integrating in the Life..
But just like Chase left the Sopranos ending, this might be it... to let the audience wonder & use their own imagination... Hope not though.. A sequel would actually be amazing to show & inform of so many more theories....
And to the people that didn't like it too much...be fair man, how much do u think they can possibly cram into only 2 hrs? It's a prequel, just starting to scratch the surface.. That's why a sequel will finish quenching our thirst!! & finish explaining what we didn't see...I really enjoyed it for what it is & what it tried to explain, leading up to the amazing Show...
Just like the actual show, this should be watched more than once to understand more, that might have been missed the first time around. There's a lot that it explains in the 2 hrs, but I found that watching it again made things that much more clear & understandable... I wish it would have been at least 3 hrs long or more, if this is it... I hope not tho, cause I know a sequel would literally most likely be amazing...
NO
It's already out there that there's DEFINITELY going to be a sequel. :-) Look for it in about 3 years or so, I'd say.
@@doorswhofan I hope you’re right
It just makes me want to watch the sopranos all over again.. take it how you want it.
They never showed Dickie doing drugs not once...
For real they just show him drinking alcohol
That's probably the point, Christopher has no reason to blame his father Dickie for being a drug addict.
At the funeral I think Livia said they found pills in Dickie’s jacket after he died (the medicine Tony was asking Dickie about for Livia actually, if I’m right), maybe that’s what started rumors of him and drugs
I believe it was supposed to be the drugs that young Tony was asking to get his mother Livia but other than that they didn't show no other drug use and think he multisanti was supposed to be a needle user or at least a Coke user
livia spread the rumors about him if you really pay attention…
The way it was going I was thinking it was gonna be Tony was gonna kill Dickie which would have been perfect.
But what I do like is it shows Tony lied to Christopher about that cop he said shot him.
I loved the movie but if I could change anything, that would be it. It would involve Tony more and be much more personal. I wish that could've played out
We truly don’t know if Tony lied though.
@@truthteller5521 Right, Junior had someone else pull the trigger. Maybe the cop, maybe not.
@189KansasCity
The fact that Tony was waiting for Dickie in the diner tells me he wasn't in on it.
They both got fooled
How come no scene from when dickie “single Handedly took out a crew from New England” or any real evidence of him being a drug addict. … and what was the deal with coaching blind kids??? At 1st I thought that was a joke. But at his funeral there were a bunch of blind kids there!? Wtf
@Thoronbor of Gondor it kinda makes sense tho. Tony lied to Christopher to trick Chrissy into having some sense of gratitude and loyalty towards him. I mean, I think it was always implied that he was kinda lying. Remember how he told Christopher that Dickie was shot while he was bringing home “a crib” for Chrissy. Then Chrissy said “They always told me he was carrying TV trays” then Tony tries to cover up his lie.
I dunno, Tony manipulating Chrissy seems like a very Tony thing to do in my opinion.
@@louier2967 you got it twisted. Chris says crib. Tony says tv trays. And For all we know Tony prob doesn’t know Junior set it up. He is prob telling Chris the story he was told over the years.
@@getmoney6130 aaahh you’re right, dude. Thanks. But anyway, I still enjoyed the movie though. I had a couple of misgivings but still had fun watching it 😂 and I still think tho that Tony trying to manipulate Christopher into having a sense of gratitude towards him is a very Tony Soprano thing to do 😂😂 although he loved Chrissy in his weird way, he always kinda mistreated Chrissy too
@@louier2967 True. I always wondered myself if Tony was telling the truth about that. I was hoping the movie would clarify that but it didn’t lol
I took a lot of what didn't quite line up with what we were told about Dickie as the way people become stories when they're gone. For better or worse. Then there's the point that Tony was almost definitely lying to Christopher about Dickie. As for the blind kids, that was a very weird, almost dream-like sequence, but that's on brand for Chase and his sudden bursts of surrealism.
“All out war” lol one scene of Harold attacking the crew
Harold was such a brave man standing up to all those white guidos :D
@@creed22solar123 Yeah he was, no f*cks given, and Guisipella rode cowgirl on his BBC!
I seriously can't believe that people are trashing it in reviews..it was damn good especially if you were a fan of the show
This story about Dickie was beautifully done. Anyone complaining didn't get the point. There's more to come. Kudos to the guy who played Dickie and all of the actors. So well done!
Excellent movie. Being Italian, I was always curious about the derivation of last names because they would most often translate to a town, adjective, religious derivation, etc. Found it particularly clever when I realized that Molti-Santi translates to Many Saints.
Thanks for that. Most of us will not come to find that out.
Love these kind of movies and I love the Sopranos
I wanted to see richie apprile get that jacket haha
Felt a lot like a long episode and not so much like
A movie, I enjoyed it.
True
4:36 He didn't fall down the stairs at Dickie's father's funeral. They were attending a wake for one of the associates killed in the drive-by.
Still didn't have the makings of a Varsity Athlete 🤷
This movie felt like it was made by Carmine Lupertazzi Jr. and Chris Moltisanti. Cleaver was better.
lol
My feelings about this movie.....
"It's good to be in something from the ground floor. I came too late for that and I know. But lately, I'm getting the feeling that I came in at the end. The best is over."
Perfect
So how did Tony grow up to overtake his seniors (i.e. Sil, Paulie, etc.) and become "underboss" of New Jersey? Is it just because he is the son of Johnny Soprano or were the others really lacking in leadership quality?
That's all I wanted this movie to answer who shot Dickie and who ordered the hit clearly the sequel will include feech lamadas card game heist
The Newark riots I’ve always heard stories from my grandmother and great grandfather because my great grandfather was a cop during the riots never thought I’d see them in a movie
We need a mini season of like 5 episodes focused on Richie Aprile and Feech La Manna
I want to see Richie take da jackettt!
i want MORE! There should DEFINITELY be a sequel.
nah
I loved the call back to his mom getting shot threw her beehive hair in the car. 🤣
I heard a lot of complaints about this prequel, but honestly after watching it myself they did an amazing job in my opinion! I actually want more! A sequel to the prequel so we can see how everyone evolves overtime. It would be awesome to see Tony Soprano in his early 20s growing in to the boss he became years later. Fill in all the gaps ! That would be cool to see.
The guy who kills Dickie sounds like Billy Magnussen who plays Paulie Walnuts. It was also fall right into line with the idea that Patsy and Paulie had Tony killed in the show’s finale.
Chase has always managed to write Tony in such a way that you like him & sort of root for him when you shouldn’t because he manages to convince you at times that there is good somewhere in Tony & he does the things he does because he has to. Then Chase will throw these curveballs & you feel sick for ever thinking he was anything but evil.
That’s how I felt after the truth about Dickie’s death curve ball. We don’t know for certain if Tony lied to Christopher or not but we do know Tony would 100% do something like that if it benefited him to do so. So, I’m 90% sure that’s what happened here. Tony lied to Christopher as a way to kill two birds with one stone. He got Christopher’s devoted loyalty while also taking out the cop he wanted gone for whatever reason.
This movie was not what I had expected. I thought it would show Tony growing up within the family we barely saw that. We saw more of this whole new Harold side plot that has nothing to do with The Sopranos series. They shouldn't have done nothing left it at that.
The story was supposed to be focused on Dickie, So Harold is supposed to be seen as the de facto antagonist
Yeah but what about that Dickie haunted down the New England Crew and him being the toughest guy in the family the Ruffalo incident? They forgett alot of things sourrading Dickie and not alot of DiMeo family business
Yeah maybe if there is a sequel maybe David will include Tony but I liked the movie.
I’m sorry I didn’t understand the other black gang thing either… i didn’t care about it at all! I wasn’t really interested in any of it! But it could of been worse
@@heywhatsthat5212 it was unnecessary to the whole Sopranos series universe. Could of done without it, especially in a movie that lacked numerous character build up.
I think Paulie killed Dickie. He always made the call on the show sayin, "It's done," and he ended up being close to Christopher on the show...
That’s what I’m thinking. Maybe Paulie felt guilty for what he had done to Dickie, and wanted to redeem himself by treating Christopher well.
@@alancantu2557 treating christopher well? lol
@@alancantu2557 He rarely treated him well. He was, however, openly remorseful for his mistreatment and begrudging attitude toward him after his death.
Maybe, it would've been better if he said ''it's done He He''
Yeah. I just rewatched the scene a minute ago. You don't get a good look at the shooter's face. He's white, slim built with a flat-type hat...and he used a silencer. Chase is good at leaving loose ends, or having plot line open ends so that people can say, "Yeah. Must have been the cop" like it says in the show. Or others can say that that was a lie and it was someone else, and still possibly be right. Either way we know Junior orchestrated it.
it seems like all most people did was complain about what they didnt like. It was such a privilege to have Micheal Gandolfini play a young Tony. He did a great job and I was so wonderful to see him looking just like his dad.
I feel sorry for the retired Cop that Chris killed.
Tony probably just had Christopher kill somebody for him that had nothing to do with his dad but maybe with something else with the family it was disappointing completely.
I feel sorry for chris. Tony was heartless towards him in the end
@@petes.6609 Chris may know it as well and at the end he just say that “It does not matter anyway he wants you dead”
It was a skinny young white guy. Could have been a cop on Junior’s payroll. I imagine dirty cops don’t dress in uniform for hits.
Sheesh, in the thumbnail, the kid is the spitting image of a young John Cusack!
I didn't look at the title and I thought this was about an older movie with younger John Cusack! I was very confused 😕😅
John Cusack was WAY cuter!
Loved this movie. I like how they carried on the story from the Sopranos. Not particular liking of the characters portraying the originals but the movie was good. James' son did an EXCELLENT job with the role.
Am I’m the only one who’s upset about the way junior was portrayed. They turned him into Fredo Corleone. In the series he was quick witted,funny, and smart. He walked in room with confidence and a always gave tony sound advice. In the movie they turned him into a joke of a wise guy.
I think it makes sense though. Junior has always been very insecure and quick to show how he’s “The Boss” in the series. Makes sense that he wasn’t respected much which is why he develops a superiority complex.
What the F**k was pusy? An Arab?
Yeah wasn’t feeling it. Only pass i could give him for having dicky wacked is if he somehow found out dicky really killed his father and it was a mob hit in retaliation.
@@nickynightclub9896 really? I enjoyed Michael Gandolfini a lot. And the guy who played Sil was really spot on 😂😂
@@getmoney6130 I couldn't even watch the entire movie...I turned it off halfway it was terrible...and I wanted to enjoy it... I'm a big Sopranos fan
The Many Saints of Newark…..
Whatever happened there.
What ever happened there !
It petered out.
I saw this last night. Michael gandolfini looks exactly like his father
They absolutely have to make a sequel. So many loose ends and plot points to expand on along with seeing young Tony grow into a gangster
Maybe the ex cop is the shooter Junior contracted…
Maybe it was Bobby Bacala Sr.
I thought the prequel was very good and having Christopher narrate a story about his father was great. I always knew that Cop never killed Dickie but that Junior was behind Dickie’s killing wow! I’d definitely watch another movie telling more of how Tony came up through the mob Ranks and find out if Tony ever actually knew that Junior was behind Dickie’s Murder.
What about Dickie bringing war to the doorstep of the New England Crew as mentioned several times in the series? Remember when Chris and Silvio subbed the Johnny Sack hit out to the old geezers and they were eyeing up Christopher all suspicious-like? People forgetting about that?
This was a cool film .. Many Saints could’ve been the future classic series HBO needs right now after the disastrous note that Game of Thrones went out on …
Bobby Baccalieri, Sr.- You have them all fooled! Junior- Yeah that's right.
Maybe he killed Dickie
I feel like that cop still killed Dickie and junior paid him or owed a favor
I did not put that together... good catch
Plus I think they gave away that Tony lives at the end of the show bc Christopher says..."Tony gave my wife and daughter his pocket change after he killed me... but that was much later on..."
But he's talking all about the 60s and 70s... his own death was much later on too.
Actual Title should be "Harold in Newark: Heroic black man fights guidos"
I thought why tf is he still alive then I realized it’s 2021 they don’t wanna make anyone mad
It was more about blacks than it was Italian Mafia Sopranos running North Jersey.
@@Chezilla2000 lol that’s a fact!
@@petes.6609 have you ever been to Newark?
@@Chezilla2000 or maybe his character wasn't the trash human who drowned a woman and his own father.
Why didn't anybody notice harolds killer pretending to sweep the pavement right at the very end?
Watched it this past week and love it. This could be a great prequel series. 🤞
What a Saint. He coaches blind kids in baseball, that guy.
The movie is the missing piece to the epic that is the sopranos. It’s a endless circle of karma with the crime family. The death of dicky set off a chain of events that would come back to haunt junior later in life. Almost parallel to dicky and his uncle ironically
U don’t understand how good it is to see my home in a movie
I hope they make another movie to this because it did not show things that tony did in the series when he was young. Like when they said that tony had his own crew when he was young and said tony used to sell weed or crabs. Or when they said Dickie was drug addict. Or the things tony did to be where he is in the sopranos
I agree really needs to be another movie. No side chicks just family business period.
They said dickie was a drug addict at the end because he had anti depressant drugs on him when he died. It was the drugs that Tony kept begging him for. It was so lame lol. I would also like to see more of Tony's crew, like when they stuck up Freech's card game.
@@michaelwachendorf2096 it was really bad that it focused so much on dickie's black crony and the mistress, 2 one off characters never mentioned in the series.
@@slagnarf4855 yea exactly this movie was garbage 🗑
They decided to push some woke black militant side plot instead of further developing characters in the The Sopranos series like we all had expected. Smh.
I started watching this movie around 12.00am and didn't fall asleep. That aside I thought the movie was great.
The ending was terrible and felt inconclusive. To have him get killed over laughing at someone falling down stairs. Instead of the actual war is beyond ridiculous.
Yeah that shit piss me off
Lol did you guys ever watch the Sopranos? David Chase is a big fan of anti-climax. It's largely the point of the show. Gangsters don't get grand culminations of character and total narrative fulfilment - they get shot in the back of the head because they said the wrong thing to the wrong person at the wrong time. Brutal, senseless death and destruction at all times. That's the whole idea. It's evil.
Remember in season 2 of the show, with all that ramping up of tension with Richie and Tony, that felt like it could only end in a war? It ended because he hit Janice and she got pissed and shot him.
Reminds me of the actual show lol
@@saintspy150 Good point, but they killed pussy in the finale for being a rat. Something they built up since the end of season 1.
It just wasn’t enough of a build up for it to end like that.
@@saintspy150 yeah i dont think there is anything wrong with the plot.
Just kind of a general weirdness to the way it was delivered. This was a very strange movie. I dont think i've ever watched a movie that was paced like this before.
Looper is a great channel 👌👍👏
I LOVED this movie. Learn to watch a movie for what it is, instead of theorizing for hours on end and only disappointing yourself.
You are so right Tyler! In a series you have a longer period of time to build on all the characters. The movie was good 👍
One thing I did noticed, Dickie wasn't a drug addict at all not even a alcoholic, he just drank a little to stiffen his nerves but he wasn't an alcoholic. Bad temper and full of rage in a very dark personality yet charming but yet he will kill you in a heartbeat. He see what he did to his father and his girlfriend. Dickie is scary, very unpredictable just like Christopher was Christopher do violence in the heartbeat.
Best part of the movie : Dickies long walk on the beach lol
Borko: It’s done.
Junior: Good.
So much potential wasted on a boring plot
Seriously that random side plot regarding social justice was unnecessary. I wanted to see the origins of the DiMeo crime family and didn't really get that. A bunch of stories not fully developed, not one done right.
@Agent of Hydra MUST WHINE AND CRY EVERY TIME ANYTHING REMINDS ME THAT ANYONE BUT WHITE MALES EXIST.
@@laurafreedlund2899 lol the sopranos is and always has been about italian mobsters. Turn off your NPC autopilot brain for one second.
@@laurafreedlund2899 can’t even have mobster shows without this social justice nonsense being pushed into it and it makes no sense at all why is Howard alive at the end how is he alive ?

@@LordDarshdan because Harold is “willie overalls”... According to Paulie is where Tony popped his first cherry... come on use your head, It leaves room for more later... another movie!!
Neil young made his speech from the moon
Ed Marinaro got a credit for Jilly Ruffalo....I don't remember seeing the actor. You???
Really liked what they did to Junior's character. The actors got down the character's mannerisms, specially Pussy. I liked how they showed the emotional side of Livia. Michael hit it out of the ballpark stepping on his dad's shoes. It clearly needs a sequel focusing on Tony's origin story. It could become a even trilogy or a series.
Vera was awesome as Liva.
I like that we saw the origin of the infamous “Two black guys” that cause so much havoc in the original series.
Oh yeah those two guys...
Wait im not sure I understand? Could you elaborate?
In this day and age, do you really think that storyline couldn't have been added without the film being called racist?
To think we missed out on 20 minutes worth of Silvio, Paulie and young Tony because of this agenda based media world we live in
@@razzprince2877 seriously
@@razzprince2877 you must be delusional bc in the film there’s plenty of racist words used against black ppl just like in the show, I swear y’all just be making up things to be mad at
I thought truer to the show's genius would have had Junior Soprano as Tony's biggest football fan. And then let the audience imagine what might have happened between the two to end with Junior's iconic line, "Never had the makings of a varsity athlete."
I enjoyed the movie but the ending just doesn't make any sense to me. I may have missed something I guess. If Junior set it up so it would look like Harold took Dickie out, why would they let Harold live? The last we see him is he is moving out to the burbs. I just can't see them letting it slide. Did Junior get the okay to take Dickie out?
They left it open for a sequel
We don’t know that they let it slide. Moving out to the burbs was just one event in Harold’s life. Anything could have happened to him after that.
If that was supposed to be a cliff hanger making us wanting more for the sequel.......... it is the worst cliff hanger in movie history.
I legit thought that Harold was going to get shot during that credits scene, you know as "revenge" or whatever. Pretty disappointed nothing happened
@@aydiosmiono7524 Yeah even just that would have made the ending make a lot more sense. I didn't hate the movie like some people are saying but the ending is just baffling.
Chris wanted a dad and dickey just wanted to be a dad ,christopher got screwed out of a good dad..
Sopranos as a series should have been left alone. This movie had no rhyme or reason. No attachment to the characters.
Agree 100%...bad choice of cast. This is a should have no attachment to such a good series
I just finished it was so bad that it was hood
I didn’t like “Many Saints.” It was a let down. I don’t know, it just didn’t feel right... maybe rushed, maybe the editing wasn’t right... Dickie wasn’t developed enough in the film really. And the ending with Junior, it just seemed goofy. If Junior has real issues with Dickie, then heighten the tension between the two maybe. The whole movie just felt too random, no real flow to it.
I was shocked at how bad this movie was. It tried to tell several stories and didn't even tell one well.
Was nothing like the sopranos.. was some woke black power bull shit
@@Roman-oh7xc what is wrong with you?
I was just thinking today - did this movie even have a plot at all? It felt like a miniseries that had to be cut down to two hours.
@@raegleek88 what's wrong with you? Is the real question. That side plot had nothing to do with "The Sopranos." That person has a point there. Along with many other reaosn this movie missed what could have been a great prequel.
This movie was awful! I turned it off half way.
I liked it. Need more!!!
Maybe it's just me but after watching today I was left with a large feeling of wanting. Some characters you would expect had really no development and other characters ending was just incredibly abrupt. Now if this was a 2 parter I would be very interested in seeing the second but since this is a one-off supposedly I'm left disappointed. A good story but just missing something for me.
@Agent of Hydra lol congratulations that's the stupidest comment I've read today.
It depicted what was going on at the time nothing more. It wasn't even a central point to the movie that people thought it was going to be. Seems like the most important plot point it played was giving Dickie somewhere to burn up his dad without raising any questions. Let me guess you hated Captain Marvel too because the hero was a woman.
@@Kilroy238_ Ignore him these people don’t know history or they love to pretend racism was a myth
I agree with you
I can agree with your statement i felt kind of disappointed after watching it almost like we have been waiting for years for this movie and we get this? Idk how to feel about it I am gonna have to watch it again to try and appreciate it more. It was a good movie but it didn’t feel anything like a sopranos movie if you catch my drift.
@@time4477 half the movie was social justice riots and Howard isn’t even killed at then end despite murdering multiple made guys liberal rewriting no wonder it’s not as good as the series
@@LordDarshdan it was a good movie though I mean if you think about it
Every movie from the 70s and 80s and 90s always had political stuff in it
It also always showed racism and riots and protest
This movie is no different and as far liberal maybe New Jersey is a liberal city like Boston and New York and most of the East it’s consider blue state
But there is many republicans in it too
I don't understand why so many people did not like this movie I thought it was excellent and it made me wanna watch the entire soprano show again which I will
Also, Silvio was Wayyyyy over the top!
They showed the killing of Willy Overall the black bookie in the show Young Tony does it with young Pauly. That's what connects to the ending of the movie.🇮🇹🇺🇸
I woke up this morning watched a bad prequel.
There's nothing in the movie that suggests Haydu was or wasn't the shooter, like always maybe Tony was lying or maybe he only had part of the story right, but it doesn't rule out a corrupt cop from being the shooter Junior hired.
Why did they mess up Sil’s age? That bugged me the most.
Underrated comment but yes it took me out of the film entirely. What a cartoonish version of a legendary character. The timeline felt unauthentic and they made the grounded relationships of sopranos feel obscure in relation.
@@WilliamAlanHarris I thought it was kind of cringed but the more I think about it, Sil was always a goofy character so I don’t know if it could have been done better. What bothered me is the fact that Sil is only supposed to be two years older than Tony.
@@steelersguy74 for sure I just feel like he never started off younger as a goofy character he like became that once he went up in the family
I always thought Sylvia was the same age as Tony I never knew he was a little older.
@@masclinemancalvindaniels2707 According to any character histories I’ve been able to find, Sil was born in 1957 and Tony was born in 1959.
It wasn't Dickies father's funeral that Jr fell at. It was the character that joey Diaz plays funeral.
This movie sucked, it should have been a series like the original show instead.
John William Smith was not killed, but was beaten extremely bad. To the point where bystanders thought he was dead.
the actor who played silvio was absolutely horrible, jesus christ!
Yup it was lika a parody
He over did the character
@@thesupervisor3270 if he dialed it back it wouldve been so much better
ONCE AGAIN! Here we are with your EXPLANATION for something that NEEDS NO EXPLANATION
Ending was the best part. Probably more films coming
Nah I didn't like the whole junior angle. He was petty but kill a made guy over in your own family for him laughing at him petty?
@@mtgsykotic3142 Yeh, Junior wasn't even respected in the show if we're being honest and the voice on the phone sounds like Paulie's character (not 100%) but I just don't see any of the underlings killing Dickie on behalf of Junior. Not to say I don't see Jr. being capable of it, I just idk, it felt weird but it definitely will make a rewatch more interesting as there was always animosity between Tony and Jr. and Chris and Jr.
@@mtgsykotic3142 tony killed Ralph over pie o my
@@mtgsykotic3142 anything is possible
@@mtgsykotic3142 Um yes? He literally ordered a hit on Tony for similar reasons😭
It was a decent movie but I expected Dickie to be way more wild, menacing, and dangerous than he was in this movie.
I knew Paulie was older than Tony. But I thought sil and puss were Tony’s peers or around the same age. I was surprised there was an age gap in this.
I was surprised too there was like a 10-year gap between them
Saw in theater last night. Very much like another Sopranos episode. Wish it was longer, hopefully there is a sequel. Or series.
Michael G subtlety nailed Tony. Vera so fun. Dickie character just right.
Had to have equality more than quality in this movie yes they had some races remarks but The Sopranos especially Tony was very racist.
That whole scene with them doing the pinky swear reminds me of a bite off of a bronx tail and maybe the director just couldn't come up with anything original
