The Pachinko Angelreviews are in for the mobster movie Gotti which profiles the life of notorious crime boss John Gotti. Following the laundry list of excellent mob movies this should be an easy win, but Gotti's reviews are apparently the only entertaining thing about it.

The movie currently has a 0 percent Tomatometer score on Rotten Tomatoes. That's right, zero.

Tomatometer ratings are based on "the percentage of professional critic reviews that are positive for a given film or television show," provided there are at least five reviews. Personally, I didn't even know a 0 was possible.

Among the 18 approved "Tomato Critics," not one gave Gottia positive, or "fresh," review, though we should note that the audience score is currently at 82 percent, with an average rating of 4.1 out of 5 from 6,678 reviews at the time this story was published

Regardless, here are some of the best snippets from the reviews.

1. "He may have been a murderer, but even Gotti deserved better than this."

- Brian Tallerico for RogerEgbert.com

2. "There's not really a story here. It's more a series of recognizable scenes from any number of gangster movies..."

-Mark Dujsik for MarkReviewsMovies.com

3."Gotti ends up feeling like a kitschy assemblage of other directors' ideas."

-Gary Thompson for Philly.com

3. There are 44 credited producers on the picture (good. lord.), and not one person had the nerve to question just what kind of derivative, borderline nonsensical film was being made.

-Brian Orndorf for Blue-Ray.com

4. You don’t put the “Theme From ‘Shaft’” in a movie that is not “Shaft.” Come on.

- Glenn Kenny for the New York Times

5. "... the picture is a chaotic assemblage of short, disconnected scenes interrupted by snippets of archival footage, bits of narration and even moments when Travolta breaks the fourth wall by talking directly into the camera."

- Frank Swietek for One Guy's Opinion

6. "While Travolta has his moments, the woefully uneven film too often settles for mobster stereotypes rather than providing meaningful insight into its subject."

- Todd Jorgenson for Cinemalogue

7. "John Travolta and E from Entourage turn infamous mob boss Gotti into a scowling bore."

- Mike D'Angelo AVClub

(Writer's note: This is just the headline, but OMG what a headline.)

8. "... the vibrant, rap-infused score by Pitbull, which features three solo tracks by the popular artist, doesn’t quite jibe with the movie’s general style and tone."

- Gary Goldstein for the Los Angeles Times

9. "...Gotti is a connect-the-dots disaster — the don's greatest hits, so to speak — without discernible theme or cohesive narrative."

-Franke Lovece for Newsday

10."[Director Kevin] Connolly’s in too much of a rush to get somewhere and doesn’t seem to know what that destination is."

- Chris Nashawaty for Entertainment Weekly
