well...it could of been better...

Rating: 4/10 (6 February 2006)

Well this movie was alright, it wasn't fantastic, and it wasn't brilliant, but the fact the promotion for this film was huge, and i feel it was over promoted, thats why i didn't like this film as much as i wanted to. At times the film really sucked bad, including the main talking parts,they were boring and since i was watching this film at night, i nearly dropped off and i wasn't even tired. However the fighting sequences were good and kept me awake. This film is a film id wait to watch again in about 10 years time or something. And also this isn't a film i'd consider to be for an impatient person, since the (as i mentioned before) the talking scenes drag on a bit. But i feel this film is lucky to get a 4/10 from me because although it sucked a lot, it was a very powerful piece from Martin Scorsese and the soundtrack was good, Martin put in effort, and got a half decent movie out of it. On a final note, I was quite glad to see the credits..eventually.
