Pelon kaupunki: New York vastaan mafia

The best of mafia movies, except that it's reality. Or is it? The series neatly chronicles the efforts of the FBI agents (and others) who decided to get their hands on the five New York crime families, it shows not only the investigation, but how the families themselves functioned and the relationships the criminals and lawmen sometimes shared. All this is done with the help of a fair amount of period footage and contemporary dramatization. I really liked the way things unfolded, and I think the revelation of how the Mafia was involved in the construction of Manhattan, for example, will surprise some. (27.07.2020)
