Robert De Niro’s The Alto Knights Misfire Officially Ended a Crime Movie Era

Despite an intriguing idea, The Alto Knights was a major box office disappointment in 2025. While it’s found some popularity on streaming services like HBO Max and Amazon Prime Video, the $50 million movie only earned $10 million in theaters. Critics haven’t been kind either, giving it a 40% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Though Levinson’s latest film has some redeeming qualities, it ultimately shows how far the crime genre has come.
