"Mob Land" is a film that takes you on a journey in organized crime, but cannot offer a truly original experience. While the film tries to capture the fascination and danger of these organizations, it ends up not leaving a lasting impression.
One of the strengths of the film is in the cast, featuring a talented set of actors who give life to their characters with conviction, one of them being John Travolta. The chemistry among the cast members adds depth to the story despite everything
Where "Mob Land" fails is in its camera movement (which makes sense since the entire film was recorded in just 11 DAYS). I have never seen a cinematography with a perfect atmosphere for the movie, having such an unregulated camera movement, spoiled many parts that the tension was happening, BUT THEY ATE IN THE LAST SCENE.
Despite its flaws, "Mob Land" manages to entertain to a certain extent. Fans of movies with this theme can still find pleasure in a movie like this. The film explores themes of loyalty, betrayal and the consequences of choices within the criminal underworld, although in a somewhat predictable way.
