liked it

I enjoyed this but I'm going to say something I rarely or never say - watch the film instead.

The best bits of the book are the interviews with Henry Hill, and most of them appear verbatim as a voice over in the movie. As such, the book adds very little to the enjoyment or detail of the film version.

There are a couple of extra details but, on the whole, it's probably not worth reading as I'd give the film a clear five stars.

(I'm not sure I'm happy with myself for doing a review saying films are better than books so I'm going for a lie down.)
