Strictly Sinatra is certainly better than mediocre and it’s often quite entertaining, but it’s not precisely cause for a stampede to the video store.

Capaldi has found a neat way to stand the mafia movie genre on its head at times.

Loaded down with gritty Glasgow atmosphere and authenticity, and works so well as an ensemble piece.
