* HistoricalVillainUpgrade: While he was a murderer, Kuklinski probably wasn't a legendary Mafia hitman like portrayed here. In reality, his known victims were just members of his burglary gang and a few small-time crooks he was doing business with.
** HistoricHeroicUpgrade: That said, the movie gives him a much more sympathetic relationship with his family. While he put them through a lot of grief, they are portrayed to be the thing he cared most about in his life. In real life, though he did go through periods of being a loving father and husband, he was also prone to fits of anger that led to both physical and mental abuse towards his wife and children respectively.
