Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald Alessandro Nivola is brilliant as Tony’s uncle, Dickie Moltisanti, an unstable explosive who didn’t feature in The Sopranos but whose story provides fascinating insights into characters such as Tony’s mother, Lydia (Vera Farmiga). Expect laughs too. Aug 11, 2022 Full Review David Stratton The Australian No doubt devotees of the series will have different opinions as to the value of this backstory, but seen in isolation, as an intense and sometimes violent story of a dysfunctional family, the film is richly rewarding in its own right. Rated: 4/5 Nov 12, 2021 Full Review Sandra Hall Sydney Morning Herald Newcomers to the Soprano saga will have no difficulty tuning in. The narrative soon begins to take on the classic lines of authentic tragedy. Rated: 4/5 Nov 3, 2021 Full Review Branyan Towe Loud and Clear Reviews This is a return to the world of The Sopranos that is ultimately just fine, rather than a film that matches the greatness of the original series Rated: 3/5 Jul 29, 2024 Full Review Tania Hussain popculture. Smoothly harmonizing edge with heart for a cohesive story, the film is undeniably entertaining and works magnificently to open doors for plenty more thanks to compelling direction and writing. Jul 10, 2024 Full Review Daryl MacDonald InSession Film The little things can be ignored though – especially if you've never seen the show – in favour of the truly stand out performances, specifically from Nivola, and the brilliantly executed thematic beats.

Monica Wow! Such a good drama! Amazing acting & I loved the backstory. Would see it again! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/26/22 Full Review G Gangsters and guns. Great homage to a legend. RIP. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/31/21 Full Review Regan M B The movie kept my interest throughout the feature. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/26/21 Full Review Anthony it was good can't wait for the next movie to continue the saga Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/25/21 Full Review Debra If you were raised in Newark in 1967 you were well aware of what Newark looked like and what occurred during the riots. They shot scenes that were true to form of locations shown, the bus was a real bus line, movie theaters were real theaters that we went to, and the music was what was listened to during that period of time. You have to be of a certain age group to appreciate it for the authenticity of these things. I also liked the way it ended showing the ice cream parlor where the television show ended which is a real location also. James Gandolfini's son was very good as a teenage Tony Soprano as was the portrayal of Frank Lucas from the time. I was happy to be able to go back into a movie theater even wearing a mask and social distancing done after not being able to for a whole year and several months. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/23/21 Full Review Bonnie It was long and dragged out.....the story was not as interesting as we thought it would be.
