at looooong last!.....recognition for a great film

Rating: 10/10 (11 July 2007)

I'm very pleased that this film has finaaly made the IMDb top 250....of course i feel it deserves to be much higher than it is right now...but who knows perhaps in time..people will see that it is much superior to another scorsces entry on this list...the departed.I personaaly like it just a tad more than goodfellas....diniro is great...pesci as another mobster psychopath but just a little more understated....and who could ever forget the performance of sharon stone.A 3 hour film is usually trying on one patience but this one moves...never gettling muddled or bogged down.This is perhaps one of those films that will gain stature through the ages.
