The life of powerful union leader Jimmy Hoffa is the subject of this biographical drama. The focus is strongly on Hoffa's public and political life, from his early days as a labor organizer to his later conflicts with the Federal government -- and, eventually, his mysterious disappearance. ~ Judd Blaise, Rovi

Danny DeVito played an excellent part also, and was surprised to see a very young John Reilly. Plenty of action, drama and suspense. If you only know what you have heard about Jimmy
