Peter and Michael, raised on the streets of Philadelphia, are the children of Irish mob members, forever linked by the crimes of their fathers. 30 years later, Michael now runs the criminal organization and lusts for more power, his dangerous antics frequently held in check by his cautious cousin Peter. Haunted by the death of his sister, whose passing destroyed both his parents, Peter is caught between the dreams of childhood and the realities of his life as an enforcer. His only reprieve is a local boxing gym, a sanctuary that is quickly threatened as Michael’s desire for control escalates.

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Don't listen to the negative reviews
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
