Welcome to the Film Pie! Brisbane based film critic Matt Toomey has reviewed thousands of movies since 1996. See what's out now, or browse the review archive.

The Many Saints of Newark (out Nov 4) is a film which serves as a prequel to the successful television series, The Sopranos. I don’t mind a good gangster flick but there doesn’t appear to be anything particularly cunning about these characters and so we’re left with repetitive power games that grew tiring by the final act. Grade: B-.
