Mr. Kotter should have gotten a cameo, they should make a movie about HIM.

The Hubers are not in the movie. They just showed up for the premiere. I wonder if the Hubers rated it zero on rotten tomatoes.

Battlefield Earth is bad to the point of being funny. I loved they way the cave man types got 1000 year old Harrier jets to fly. That aged jet fuel must be something.

Armand Assante did the best Gotti, and mops the floor with Travoltas cartoon version. He never got the notoriety but he’s a good actor.

It was funny but wasn’t a comedy.

The aliens were like Klingons with dreadlocks and acted like Ferengi.......But Travolta’s voice still came out like Tony Manero from Saturday Night Fever...............

It must be worse than Battlefield Earth......................

I think they wanted to call it Battlefield Gotti...

Travolta, know when to STOP!

Well he did do a pretty good Clintonesque character in “Primary Colors”

I still say that the book, even as long as it is, is FANTASTIC.

I was listening to Mark Simone, on WABC, this morning and he was obviously at this premier last night. He raved about the film and said he thought it was Travolta’s best work ever..go figure.

For the last couple of weeks I've been attending the "Cadillac Frank" Salemme trial in Boston.In it I've heard Steve "The Rifleman" Flemmi admit to having been involved in "about fifty" murders.I heard him testify to having killed two of his girlfriends (one of whom was also his stepdaughter) and after having done so he pulled out their teeth so they couldn't be identified if they were found.

All this,he said,was on the orders of "Whitey" Bulger,formerly #1 of the FBI's Most Wanted List.

Hearing that this film stinks disappoints me...I was looking forward to seeing it (on a DVD I'd get from my library).

Go to your local library and check out some really good reads on Gotti and his ilk by authors Volkman and Blum.

Have you seen “Black Mass” with Johnny Depp as Whitey?
They had a scene where Salemme bails out his stepdaughter and they take her to a Bulger hide-house and Bulger strangles her to death. And they mention pulling her teeth.
