The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

I was thoroughly impressed what this particular cast was able to pull off on this particular movie on the limited budget they were awarded. David Henry Keller is a criminal mastermind and his vulgarity is especially appreciated from " The don has too much at stake to break the status quo , we gotta stop this !@#$ing around ! " or " That !@#$$@ %$#@! " he in on point the whole time !!!! . Now to Johnny Stumper very underrated actor he portrays a public relations god if you will nobody is better than him in this business. He has one major downfall in this movie though and that is when the wicked John Falcone ( David Henry Keller ) gets his nose open on some Columbian White Flake , pure as the driven snow as one of Falcone's thugs puts it. Stumper goes through hell in this movie as Keller kidnaps his wife and basically tries to ruin his life for trying to quit the task of changing his public image. Now on to the final part I wanna review is the two from Caracus Venezuela . These two monkeys make the whole movie worthwhile from the scene in Columbia where they survive a ambush from Blondie and crew ordered by Falcone , to the party/crack smoking scene in the basement where the one idiot says to the girl " Hey baby I like your style " to the other idiot sitting there repeating okay okay , ya , okay okay then he gets the other retarded Spaniard to dance over to him to take his hit of the crack pipe then he proceeds to shake his head so fast you will never see anything like it !. anyways enjoy the movie guys ignore the haters Mob War is a GOOD MOVIE !!!!! I don't got any chow but I got some champagne - Johnny Stumper

Excellent casting is the strong point of this movie.The mob figures were believable.Especially good was the main bodyguard of the Jake LaMotta character.The patter of the mob people also rang true.And the choice of locations was believable.For example, the crummy furniture district where the head man's "office" was located.For those here who complain about the number of shots the pr man turned mob fighter missed, remember all the cocaine he took in the course of the movie. That doesn't help your aim.The movie was filled with totally believable patter from the crime characters.

This is a movie without any redeeming values. Bad script, bad acting, bad cinematography, even bad foley work -- there's one scene in which the lead mafioso is pouring a couple of glasses of wine and it sounds like the mike is taped to the inside of a toilet bowl as someone is urinating into it. Another scene, inside a network newsroom, echoes. In the scenes where people are sitting inside cars, talking, they all shout. The makeup is awful. The public relations man's girlfriend sits in a darkened bedroom wearing a couple of pounds of mascara.There is so much to this movie that is awful, from the sheer brutality and stupidity of the characters to the script in which people keep screaming about respect, to some fat mobster who keeps cackling in the background that I can recall no movie which approaches this in its stupidity. Even the works of Ed Wood is suffused with good intentions. I suppose there is some purpose to this movie: if you want some one to never speak to you again, recommend this movie.

I purchased the DVD of Mob War on Ebay for $2, so I thought I'd give it a whirl. If anyone else is going to watch this movie, know that the acting that you will see is soap opera quality. Other than poor acting across the board, this movie's story line is not that bad. Its more about a image consultant's work for a high profile mobster than anything else. I'd recommend watching the movie if you buy it cheap. I give it a 5 out of 10.
