Movie Haiku:Italian tale of Camorra mob''s control over Naples. SPLIT DECISION Jan: Violent, tedious & confusing; the only new arc from my POV was Pasquale’s (the master tailor played by Cantalupo), so give him his own film please! Rich: I liked the neighborhood feel; how mob intrudes on all facets of daily life.
