I was sort of okay with this until the credits rolled and Lansky's gangsterism was called "pioneering".
Yes, he was a human being and no doubt had some good qualities. But let us not forget that his 'pioneering' came at the cost of many lives. And that Mr. Lansky had a part in that as well.
Let's not make any sort of a hero out of this man.
(I'm giving the movie three stars, but not based on content)
