The Don is Dead (1973)


After his mistress is savagely beaten up a Mafia leader goes after the killer with a bloody vengeance.

A Godfather rip-off, not populated by any uomini d'onore at all; in fact, this endlessly violent and superfluous production does no honor to the many stars in the cast.

Halliwell (no star): "A failed attempt to cash in on The Godfather, this endless melodrama is boringly violent and totally predictable."

Maltin*1/2: "...trashy, derivative gangster saga."
