The Many Saints of Newark |
★ ★ ★ ★
Witness the making of Tony Soprano.
The story that reveals the humanity behind Tony's struggles and the influence his family - especially his uncle, Dickie Moltisanti - had over him becoming the most iconic mob boss of all time.
Young Anthony Soprano is growing up in one of the most tumultuous eras in Newark's history, becoming a man just as rival gangsters begin to rise up and challenge the all-powerful DiMeo crime family's hold over the increasingly race-torn city.
Caught up in the changing times is the uncle he idolizes, Dickie Moltisanti, who struggles to manage both his professional and personal responsibilities--and whose influence over his impressionable nephew will help make the teenager into the all-powerful mob boss we'll later come to know: Tony Soprano.

Review: The Many Saints of Newark
THEY SAY : A journey back in time to the formative years of leading New Jersey gangster Tony Soprano.
WE SAY : A good alternate title would be The Sopranos: The Early Days. The seminal mobster series that changed the face of TV storytelling gets the prestige prequel treatment here, with 21- year-old unknown Michael Gandolfini retracing the steps of his late father James as Tony Soprano the younger. While it does help if you are a fan of The Sopranos, it is not a complete deal-breaker for newbies.
WE SAY : Remember when you first clapped eyes on Black Panther, and realised it was changing the game inside (and outside) the Marvel Cinematic Universe? This deliriously enjoyable martial arts affair can often bring on the same feeling, even if it isn't quite in the same league. Will find a larger audience on streaming - which will green-light several sequels - but deserves to be seen on the biggest screen possible.
