Waste of Three Hours...

Rating: 1/10 (22 December 2002)

...of my life. I will enjoy seeing this movie bomb at the box office. Mr. Scorsese continues to ask us to indulge him in watching a story I couldn't care less about. Was this his New York answer to "Gone With the Wind"? Or is it Leo who can't hold my attention.
In all fairness, his depiction of urban life in 1860s was sobering. However, it's a movie and I have no idea how realistic it was, and besides that, if I wanted a documentary about the 1860s I would give Ken Burns a call.
I apologize for not explaining myself better than just to say what a waste of my time and money.
