Sorriest gangster EVER!

Ok, things may run different across the pond but what kind of gangster documentary was this? He has an entourage of teenagers, his entire family and crew live in filth, and he has a crackhead for an enforcer? How the *beep* can you take this seriously? Even Dominic himself seemed like a joke. If a man has to tell you hes in charge, he's not. The guy was throwing his weight around on camera to a WOMAN for christs sake! Then making it sound like he had something to do with making the jury "disappear" only to have them all escorted in by police! Ahhh, that was great! Then even after he jokes by saying its the jury looking for their payout for the acquittal? Every single thing about his "crew" was laughable. The family name might still have a bit of clout over there but certainly not from this puffer or his teenie bopper boy toys!

That's a lot of talk from an anonymous wankster.

Just call me DUBZ.

[–] Wu_Tang_Clam 16 years ago

I have to stay anonymous in fear of his 14 year old bodyguards. I know, I know. I should be scared. Petrified of his crack head muscle. Sorry I let ya down champ. :)

[–] veedubkid 16 years ago

You haven't let me down, it is Bill Cosby that I fear you have let down.

Just call me DUBZ.

[–] Wu_Tang_Clam 16 years ago

Seems like you fear quite a few things. Everything from Bills feelings right on down to 12 year old gangsters.

I must be American because I thought this fat kiddie toucher that tries to act tough to a woman on camera, is in court every other weekend because he gets caught at everything he does, has his family living in filth but bragging how much he makes, a crackhead and a group of 12 years old as enforcers, and constantly talking about how he runs things is just pathetic? So no, the jokes on you kid. Thats pathetic worldwide. And these aren't opinions. Its fact.

Now heres the kicker. I gave an opinion on this lousy documentary on A MOVIE REVIEW SITE. You two come on here and out of the blue, without giving ONE opinion on the actual film, and try to act tough. And then try and talk about wangsters and internet gangsters? Thats funny. I guess every other poster on this board that bashed this mockumentary is a wangsta as well. And American. I call people like you "mentally deficient". Good day sir.

Hi

Yup, another Brit who has never heard of this idiot before before watching this comedy, err, documentary I mean. Completely agree with everything the OP had to say.

OF COURSE he is messed up - he is a gangster! It is not an intelligent way of making a living, let alone, remotely legal. His sexual preference is of no concern neither here nor there.

Why are you so frightened by homosexuals? I'm a woman and not terrified by heterosexuals. Men that desire men are not rapists anymore than men who desire women.

Just because you have a preference to one particular sex does NOT render you a rapist. The fact that you believe that to be so makes you dangerous.

I completely agree with you. I found it creepy that his "crew" consisted mainly of children.

[–] aaeko 15 years ago

I have to complete agree with original poster. Did this "gangster" produce this film himself to inflate his own ego and try to gain street rep? What a sorry excuse for a gangster. Nothing more than a common thug surrounded by clownish teenager wannabes.

This IS the "Gangster" lifestyle in actuality(of course each differs in exact details)-NOT what you see in the movies-Only a very few "Gangsters" regardless of the ethicity or locale live an actual life of affluence. Most are in and out of jail and working from hustle to hustle...Not sending kids to College and and seeing psychiatrists, and dealing w/Domestic issues in the suburbs(Although "The Sopranos" is the best show EVER imo)-That's Hollywood-Entertaining as hell but not reality

Take "Goodfellas" for example-Check out the Actual real-life of Henry Hill(Ray Liotta's character)-

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Hill

-Jail, Addiction, Divorces...pretty much miserable...although the film only spends about 10min on the not-so-glamorous part...post Henry's 20's

would be dead in 6 months time in the US, if not sooner, a normal citizen would probably kill him.

How amusingly jingoistic. What are you saying? ....... Our gangsters are tougher than yours ?

Trying to live vicariously through re-runs of The Godfather?

I don't know about that but if you saw the The Experiment documentary you'd know that a good person can do about anything.

[–] truehammer 15 years ago

For all the Americans who want to find out about a REAL British gangster, check out either Terry Adams of the Clerkenwell crime syndicate, Curtis Warren or Arthur Thompson. They are all on wikipedia and also on a good website www.gangstersinc.nl, also Mickey Green and the Arif gang on wikipedia, much more interesting than Noonan who is really just an ex-doorman masquerading as a top gangster.

This 'documentary' really is a load of bollocks.

[–] barclay-james1 13 years ago

Successful gangsters the world over have one thing in commen, lots of money.
To the person who posted saying being a criminal means you cannot be intelligent, perhaps you should look at why you say that.
Do you really think all gangsters are stupid ?
Do you know anything about what your talking about ?
Another thing, any man who thinks that someone who is gay is less of a man than you, you've got so much to learn (do some reading on ancient greek history)

I agree. Watch "The End" if you want to see a documentary about some real UK hard men...

I found it creepier than hell that his crew consisted of teen boys....
