Should rename this Film: How to cure Imsomia

Rating: 5/10 (7 February 2006)

My God what a dull film! 2 Hours and 40 Minutes of boredom. Maybe Iam being a bit too harsh, The first 10 minutes were good but as soon as Liam Neeson died so did the film.
The plot is (if you can call it a plot) Amsterdam sees his father murdered in front of him while he is a child. He returns 16 Years later to revenge his fathers death.
While this Film sounds like a revenge film, Trust me it isn't. At least those films have a scene or two which are decent. Watching Gangs of new york is like a blur of colour on the scene i didn't care at all what happened to these people.
To the acting it was decent Daniel Day-Lewis was the only character which was worth paying to watch. Leonardo DiCaprio who played Amsterdam was dull he tried to put on a Irish accent but it failed miserable. So does Cameron Diaz who is just a steamy pile a rubbish in this film. Yes she is good looking but i didn't care what she did. And i have mentioned Day-Lewis who is really a wasted talent in this film. If i was bothered at what was going on, i would of loved his performance but as i said i didn't care.
Scorsese a director who i love has made his worst film by far. Every director makes a turkey and this is his.
I may have enjoyed Gangs Of New York if it was 1 Hour shorter and had an entertaining story but it didn't. **( it would of got 1 but was saved by Day-lewis and the sets)
