The Alto Knights Movie Review (Audio) | Sopranos or Altos 🎭

🎧 This is the audio version of our Alto Knights episode. For the full visual experience and commentary clips, check out our YouTube channel.

In this TruVue Podcast episode, we explore the 2025 historical crime drama The Alto Knights. Directed by Barry Levinson and written by Nicholas Pileggi, the film follows the legendary conflict between mob figures Vito Genovese and Frank Costello—both played by Robert De Niro.

Set in mid-century New York, the film portrays the internal power struggles of the American Mafia through a story rooted in real events. With dramatic tension and political maneuvering, The Alto Knights delves into the shifting dynamics of criminal leadership and legacy.

We discuss the direction, dual performances, period detail, and how the film fits into the tradition of mob cinema. The central question: Sopranos or Altos? — does this story hit a high note or blend into the background of classic mob tales?

We bring the barbershop talk to the box office.
It’s not about the review, it’s the conversation with the crew.
We keep it real on the reels.

🎥 The Alto Knights is distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures.
