Not as good as i thought

Rating: 6/10 (4 April 2003)

Let me tell you first that it LOOKS great. It has some great sights over the city and everything just looks genuine. But the story is really hard to follow. They just tried to put too much into it. There are a lot of scenes that don't have anything to do with the story. A few is o.k. ofcourse, but this movie is loaded with such scenes. It's just too much and that's why it takes so long. It gets boring now and then. And why is Daniel Day Lewis so hard to understand when he speaks? I am not a fan of DiCaprio and seeing this movies makes me understand why. Not convincing at all. Really a waste of such good photography, costumes and make-up.
