A good in depth look at the history of mafia in America. From its beginning in the 1900s to its rise during prohibition. To the formation of the commission and the five families. As well as the the mob's creation of Las Vegas and it's political ties to the Kennedys.

If your into history or have a fascination about the mafia this is a good buy. Very informative and educational. Some parts are slow, but majority of the information is great. If you are interested in seeing how it began and developed into the "business" it is today this is a good starting point. Enjoyed the 2 disc set(total of 4 hours) and have watched multiple times. It deals with the modern mafia, but it also lets you understand the "Families" and traditions that were brought over from the old country. Like I said, its about the history of "La Cosa Nostra". If your looking for something like the Sopranos, this is probably not for you.
was as good as can be . more information of the history , and origin .

The movie was quite informitive, those were some tough times for sure. The thing I liked about it was it showed the origins and how wide spread orginized crime had become, it also revealed some truths about former political figures in history which will enlighten any one who watches this documentary. I bought this movie because I have always been Facinated by that period of history.
