in a nutshell the movie be about a gang war in the 1950 . leon and the leader of the deuce and start the gang after his brother od on junk . he vow to protect the neighborhood . the leader of the rival gang be just get out of prison and want revenge . the movie do not really do it for me . the good guy weren not any more good than the bad guy . very little be show to suggest that the deuce really care for the community . i suppose the writer be go for realism here and but i just do not care which side win . none of the character be likable and or even capable of draw my sympathy . on the plus side the courtship between annie and bobby have some snappy dialog and and the act overall be well do .
