How do you manage to make this scene this anticlimactic? Only scene I've watched of this and I believe everyone saying its horrible now. Damn I wanted this to be a great movie, too.
I'm no expert but the only person I've heard say Sammy planned the hit was Sammy. You don't think he could have been talking himself up just a little bit ?

@@willnailer2118 idk Its common knowledge that there was recordings of Jon saying just how much of a “killer” Sammy was so after hearing THAT and the fact Jon kept him as his underboss makes it not hard to believe his direct involvement in the planning of the hit BUT at the end of the day IM NO MOB EXPERT and don’t claim or try to be 😂 I’m just relaying the information I heard directly from Sammy 🤷🏾♂️

You are correct. He did not have sunglasses on. But glasses were found to the right of him. They landed in the gutter. Look at pictures and you will see them on the right side of Paul in the gutter.

The next day after the shooting. Howard Stern called Sparks for a reservation. He asked was their seating available in the shooting or non shooting part of the restaurant.
What a horrible movie. They planned this hit months in advance. Sammie planned it. They made it seem like JG told the hitters right before it was going to happen. Lol
The worst boss to ever head a crime family. Gotti is so overrated. Castellano was a real gangster. Under the radar, quiet, business savvy, etc. Gotti fucked everything up
I can imagine him getting a phone call if the hit was botched. "Ehhh John. There was a flag on the big play last night. Joey Montana tried to make up for it with a last second deep throw to the endzone on 4th and long.... but ehhhh the guy..... ehhhh Lawrence Taylor intercepted the football and ran it back for a pick 6" Travolta : "Are we still talking about muder here?"

Paul's here.. He's not gonna make dinner. We gotta go. Love it.
I don't understand why gotti is planning the hit, when it was all Sammy the bull Gravano plan and execution
Usually in movies they never film things exactly how it was. Especially in mob movies
The next day after the shooting. Howard Stern called Sparks for a reservation. He asked was their seating available in the shooting or non shooting part of the restaurant.
Straight to Walmart bin dvd
The best thing ever to happen to a mediocre, overpriced Steakhouse. People still eat there 35 years later.
What a horrible movie. They planned this hit months in advance. Sammie planned it. They made it seem like JG told the hitters right before it was going to happen. Lol
Exactly had the facts and still dropped the ball
The worst boss to ever head a crime family. Gotti is so overrated. Castellano was a real gangster. Under the radar, quiet, business savvy, etc. Gotti fucked everything up
But Sammy said that John was his driver during this hit. You think his son would have known that.
steven sherrier do you think he doesn't know it? he just thought his father wouldn't look good driving.
Gotti drove in case something went wrong sammy would have jumped out firing thats y gotti drove in real life sammy was back up shooter
I feel like I’m watching the dark knight trilogy. It’s all suspenseful with the music in the background like we don’t know whats going to happen.
Bazang like the Pittsburgh Steelers ? Lmao wtf
I can imagine him getting a phone call if the hit was botched.
"Ehhh John. There was a flag on the big play last night. Joey Montana tried to make up for it with a last second deep throw to the endzone on 4th and long.... but ehhhh the guy..... ehhhh Lawrence Taylor intercepted the football and ran it back for a pick 6"
Travolta : "Are we still talking about muder here?"
R.I.P. Teflon Don
How could they not hear those gunshots from the bar? This movie is awful 😂
Gotti (1996) #1🏆
Armand Assante
William Forsythe
Anthony Quinn
Frank Vincent
Wack line pitt steelers
Armand Assante nailed the Gotti character in the 1996 film. This one with Travolta sucks.
Travola nailed it. Ice cold, brilliant acting. His best work in my opinion.
LOL...
John Travolta was not a good choice to play this part.
