696402, It was great, but the Michael Corleone similarities distracted me a bit

Felt like Issac was definitely channeling the Al Pacino of that era with the mannerisms the diction, clothes and everything. Even the one scene where he grabs his wife aggressively by the face with two hands.

It wouldn't have shocked me if there was a flashback scene in the movie with Abel as a recently arrived immigrant, sitting alone watching Godfather 2 on loop, shaping his image.

Liked the movie though. Was great seeing a story about what it really takes to be a successful businessman.
