I have finished the game, and while I loved the gameplay and story, they are almost a victim of their own success. It is really disappointing that the city is so large, beautiful and organic yet they really don't let you do much other than drive from place to place. That decision also made the game seem really short, even shorter than it really is.
Yes, the story is a bit derivative, but how could you possibly create a mafia story that isn't at this point? You can't change the core framework or personalities, if you did it would no longer be a mafia story. The game also suffers from a myriad of technical issues, bugs, freezes and some horrible screen tearing (at least on the consoles).
