This is one of very few movies I've ever screened that I had a legitimately difficult time finishing. It was awful.
The most memorable parts of the movie all involve disassociated grunting by Capone (Hardy) and his losing control of bodily functions throughout. That's not a great thing to be remembered for, yet here we are.
The movie takes the approach of looking at Capone's life after his late life release from prison. While that premise may contain some potential, the execution here is treacherous. The filmmakers would have done better to actually try to do a genuine fact based account of the last year of the mans life rather than a fabricated corncob of delusion that we were left with.
I'm really sorry for Tom Hardy. I honestly don't feel like the end product is something that he would have signed up for given his past projects.

But things are getting more complicated. My feelings for my boss are growing, my partner is more annoying than ever, and now there’s been a jailbreak. Twelve deadly prisoners are on the run after escaping from Portiside Prison, and it’s our job to chase them down. With our only lead being on a serial killing vampire, we’re headed to Darkwood, the killer’s homeland. But with our only way in through my vampire ex-boyfriend, things are more awkward than ever.
This is fast becoming one of my favourite series Terra Vane is just brilliant! I love the way these books are written. Terra once again finding herself in a tricky situation with vampires this time! The men have so many different roles for Terra and I love each one of them. She has yet to show us what she is capable of and I can't wait to see her develop.
