Gomorrah
Thought provoking & Memorable - roseyposeyirl
GOMORRAH directed by Matteo Garrone is like a modern day godfather minus the romanticism, it simply gives us an incite into the criminal scene in naples, bleak, grim,unattractive and riddled with corruption. Highly recommended for not bowing out to a typical hollywood ending or filling the screen with blood & gore, the violence is a given, in Garrones world no one is a hero.

Gomorrah a really good show but lacking a unifying story. Unlike other crime movies (Godfather, Goodfellas, Lock Stock & 2 Smoking Barrells) Gomorrah doesn't glamourise the gangsters... MORE

Gritty but lacking momentum - Lola
I was pretty prepared for Gomorrah having read the book and in fairness to the Director, he did his best to follow the somewhat disjointed nature of the interspersed stories in the book. Only problem... MORE
