Gotti--prone here to declarations like, "I'd rather die broke than bleed my family to death!"--may have had different ideas about the Mob's purpose in life, but the filmmakers are so entranced by the sheer myth of him that they haven't bothered to explore what those ideas might be. Nor do the filmmakers try to make sense of Gotti's many paradoxes.
