pathetic

Rating: 3/10 (24 June 2003)

this movie shows that scorcese is easily one of the most over-rated directors working today. Aside from the scenery which is nice and daniel day lewis (whose character is not nearly as cool as he is supposed to be) doing whatever he can do to try to make a cool character out of a bad movie, this movie is in the same league as Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones. Everything that could have been cool about this movie was skipped over to show ridiculous wannabe loves scenes and an even more ridiculous revenge quest. Every motive of every character in this movie is pathetic and it ends up with an ending that nobody cares about except for the fact that it takes nearly 3 hours to get nowhere. Anyone who can watch this movie with a straight face has no idea about good cinema. Sorry for you.
