A disaster of a movie...

Rating: 1/10 (14 February 2003)

What has happened to the world that this movie and its director are getting Golden Globes and Oscar nominations? I thought Scorsese's last few movies, "Bringing out the Dead" and "Kundun," were as bad as movies could get. But he actually manages to top them with this horrible movie. Was Daniel Day Lewis thinking he was in a Baz Luhrmann film? Were the writers forgetting things like...story? Was Cameron Diaz ever really meant to be in a period piece? 1/3 of the audience didn't make it to the end, myself included. The rest...well...I pity them. So sad that this movie is winning awards. Let's go back in time and give Scorsese awards for Casino and Goodfellas. For this film? Let's give him garlic.
