During the Depression, an Irish-American mob enforcer takes his young son on the run after his family is murdered.

Sinekatalog’s take

Sam Mendes's Depression-era gangster tragedy is a stately father-and-son story. Conrad Hall's rainy cinematography is stunning, and Hanks and Newman bring quiet weight to the violence.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
