Waste of time and money

Rating: 5/10 (11 January 2003)

Having seen thousands of movies over the years, I would have to say this is one of the worst movies I have seen. Nothing makes sense! Now I know this is supposed to be fiction, but give me a break! The sets are terrible... you can tell there is nothing behind the buildings. Gross and unnecessary blood and nudity is constantly forced upon one's eyes. Everything is way too dirty....the people of new york live right next to the ocean, I am sure they were able to bathe more than, what it appeared to be, once a year! Poorly cast, the only good performance is Daniel Day-Lewis. Every character is underdeveloped and practically every person who dies in this movie dies for no reason. How did so many of you give this movie a 10, or for that matter anything above a 5? It is beyond my comprehension!
