Ehh. I don't like how they portray Capone. Nucky Thompson, I'm not sure was that big a deal.

Lucky Luciano is downplayed quite a bit. Dude was big time. Here he is like some two bit hustler.

Well he was just that at the beginning. For the sake of not spoiling anything for others, some other moves had to happen for him to get to a point where he was "big time".

Well Nucky is a fictional character loosely based on an actual person, Enoch Johnson. Enoch was a essentially the "boss" of Atlantic City. What's not to like how they portray Capone though?
