Surviving a gunshot to the head was only the beginning. The Alto Knights is a wild true story of how to avoid all out mob war. Robert De Niro kills it.
In this captivating true story Robert De Niro faces DOWN himself and destroys the mafia. How much of The Alto Knights is factually accurate? Unclear, but the film is presented as a documentary and its only real flaw is not enough action. It’s a gripping, dark ride between former friends who fight for power over organized crime.

The Alto Knights would have been cool if it was all fiction, but this is an actual true story! Frank Costello and Vito Genovese really did face off for ultimate control of the mafia. Robert De Niro plays both roles, one a public figure and the other a blood thirsty killer. He’s so good as both people, opposite ends of the mob boss spectrum.

What makes The Alto Knights so unique is that the film is presented like a documentary, but is absolutely not one. I’d have liked more action, but the photo montages truly separate this movie from all the others. Let me know what you thought, then check out my review video.
