This is one of my favorite movies of all time (In my top 15 for sure). I remember seeing it at an art-house with my brother in 2003 and leaving the theater thinking it was the best film I had ever seen.
Cinematography, storytelling (in a goodfellas kinda way), violence, caring about the characters, all types of emotions, directing, uniqueness, were all TOP NOTCH.
PHENOMENAL MOVIE: OTHER FAVS INCLUDE: Goodfellas, Godfather 1/2, Pulp Fiction, Big Lebowski, Lives of Others, Casablanca, A Prophet, Shawshank Redemption, Pinocchio/Bambi, Animal House, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon/House of Flying Daggers to name a few
