it really amazes me that in today's poker-crazed culture this movie can't get to the big screen.

My guess is that if the movie were even remotely good, it would have been released to the big screen.

This is the most poorly written synopsis I've ever seen in a reputable online publication.

The clips shown on the website look absolutely awesome.

My favorite "Sopranos" episodes, and even favorite "Sopranos" moments, all feature Michael I. I just saw a re-run of David Caruso's last NYPDBlue episode, and Michael was awesome in THAT. The guy is great in everything I've seen him do.

I do want to watch this.

Sometimes I do wish I had Starz over HBO. Why do all these networks have to be $12 per month?

Thx, it is now on the Tivo to do list. Michael Imperioli is christopher from Sopranos.
