Editorial Reviews

He is the most famous and fabled mobster of his era. But the "teflon Don" was done in by the betrayal of those who served him, and may well be the last of his breed. John Gotti climbed out of humble Bronx beginnings on a ladder of success, leaving a body behind on every rung. Once near the top, he eliminated rival Paul Castellano and assumed control of the nation's most powerful crime family. Trace Gotti's ruthless career in this shocking exposé. See rare surveillance photos and interviews with law enforcement officials who have never spoken out before. Enter the shadowy world of La Cosa Nostra with Sal Polise, former mobster turned informant, and Henry Hill, whose story was the basis for Goodfellas. Get an up-close look at the most compelling mobster since Al Capone the larger-than-life Godfather John Gotti.

This review is from: Biography - John Gotti: A Mafia Story [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This video was alright, I don't really like A&E to boaring and drags out about useless facts. If you like John Gotti and mafia stuff you should get it, but be prepared it's not what you expect.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Video But..................., November 17, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Biography - John Gotti: A Mafia Story [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is a great video telling the life of Gotti..But it depects Mr. Gotti as a lowlife crimmial. I guess thats what you get when the media does a video about the greatest man of our era...John Gotti. But still this video is still a must see for Gotti fans.

3.0 out of 5 stars This tape is not not a must see for the true mafioso reader., November 10, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Biography - John Gotti: A Mafia Story [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This tape, unfortunately, painted Gotti as the clean cut family man who never strayed from his wife. This in itself is a joke. He had documented affairs with Lisa Gastineau and Neil Dellacroce's daughter against Neil's wishes. The author's also sould have touched more on why Gravano turned on Gotti. I have read 5 books to date on the Gambino family and John Gotti in particular, this tape gave only the commonly known information. I expected much more! If you are a true Mafia reader, this is one item you can do without...
