Blu-ray Review – Hoffa

"Hoffa" is a presentation of shameless mythmaking, though one that's
supported by such barnstorming direction, it's impossible to dismiss it
outright. It's a boldly designed, volcanically acted endeavor that
doesn't seek to understand its subject on anything more than a surface
level of engagement. This is not "Jimmy Hoffa: The Movie," but a
valentine to a shifty guy who didn't let anything stand in the way of
his vision for a unionized America, shielding his unsavory interests
behind an ideal of blue collar protection, where the common man could be
comfortable in the knowledge that loyal brothers and sisters were there
to defend his right to work in a safe, financially rewarding
environment. There's little dimension to Danny DeVito's picture,
replaced with shockwaves of cinematic orchestration that help to
preserve interest in the titular titan, even if viewers walk away from
the film with only a slightly more refined appreciation for Hoffa's
dedication to the cause. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
