Al Capone (Tom Hardy) is released after a decade in prison due to his poor health from late stage syphilis. He is hounded by hallucinations and lives with his family in Florida. He believes that he had hidden $10 million but can't remember where.

This is an idea more than a movie. There really isn't much of a point other than a fleeting treasure hunt and Tom Hardy doing his Oscar reel. It would be interesting to do a movie about his wife. If it wants to be the treasure hunt, it should start with the government agents and their reason for releasing the man. There is a son. There is the family. It's a lot things and nothing well examined. This is not a good rebound film for Josh Trank. The filmmaking looks good but the story goes down too many dead ends. It introduces characters but don't expand on them. It hints at a deeper story but ends up with a muddle.

This is a sad story about the last year of a man dying from syphilis. Capone is losing it at both ends while his family tries to cope and care for him. Meanwhile, there is a discussion of $10 million dollars he had hidden and doesn't recall where the money is at, not liking to keep notes, trusting no one.

The acting was decent, but such a film should only be a by-line at the end of a real film about Capone. It would be like watching "The Iron Lady" without an flashbacks. Just can't wait for those good old days when I can hide my own Easter Eggs.

This has quite the talented group of actors assembled. Which makes me wonder how the score is so low. But on the other hand I am not so surprised - because while this is about the infamous Capone, it is not the Capone we have seen in the past. It is rather a Capone that has lost his touch ... with reality, with his peers and loved ones and so much more.

And that makes this a movie that is not easy to watch at all. Tom Hardy though gives a superb performance! Sublime and and subtle, he touches all the right bases! Make-up effects are great and cinematography also works in the movies favor. The movie is quite violent and insane ... in many regards. Just be aware of that.
