Why?
I think Chase has Ridley Scott Syndrome: where Scott tries to use the ALIEN franchise to explore Big Themes (the nature of the Cosmos), Chase tries to make Big Statements about Race in America while using the Sopranos as supporting players.
Ray Liotta has so much makeup that he looks like Im Ho Tep. Terrible, hammy performance.
Props, though, to Corey Stoll whi nails Junior Soprano's speech patterns.

Just a bad, aimless movie not sure of itself.
For those too young: Im Ho Tep was The Mummy.

Watched it even after your warning.

Much room for improvement.

You're right about Corey Stoll... that guy is good.

Best bits for me was the stuff linked to show. Like when Tony skipped school and saw the cops shoot the mobster... or even Jr saying Tony was not varsity material. Nice throwbacks.

Was ok but totally humorless.

Did enjoy another dose of Junior's utter pettiness on graphic display.
