The life styles of the rich and infamous of the various Gotti family as outlined by the convicted (life in prison without parole) New York city crime lord John Gotti's daughter Victoria Gotti may all be true but the audience may come away thinking that this poor little "daddy's girl" was duped by both her father and her own husband of their evil ways and violent life of crime.
Make no mistake the Gotti's may have lived a wealthy lifestyle in luxurious mansions and wore expensive clothes adorned in expensive jewlery (as flagrantly displayed by Victoria Gotti as she narrates her point of view), but what Victoria Gotti neglected to tell her audience is how feared most everyday people were of just simply even hearing the Gotti name.
I am really not sure what the message was that Victoria Gotti was trying to convey in this supposed autobiographic Lifetime movie. I found it hard to listen to what was coming out of Victoria's mouth (oh, poor me I had no idea both my father and my husband were violent law breaking convicted criminals) because I couldn't get past that huge mop of a (dyed blonde) hairdo she was wearing that reminded me of a horse's mane.
We are left with the impression that John Gotti the father/huband was a loving man and always there for his family and especially for his daughter Victoria and that their relationship as father/daughter was special. But John Gotti the man spent the better part of his life behind bars for crimes that included cold blooded murders, so ask yourself if you could be satisfied with this type of family life if it allowed you to live a somewhat privileged lifestyle?
