Disappointment.

Rating: Null/10 (6 July 2003)

I waited to see this movie on DVD so that any unanswered questions I may have about the movie would be answered by the "Special Features". Sadly, I didn't even waste my time watching the "Special Features" because the "Main Feature" was already waste of time enough. The only question I was left with was "Why did I just spend nearly three hours inside on a sunny Sunday afternoon watching THAT?" Honestly, there are admirable parts of the film (notably Daniel Day-Lewis' over-the-top, near-comic portrayal of Bill "The Butcher" Cutting, the art design, costumes, etc.), but only ONE large fight scene at the BEGINNING of the movie? And an anti-climactic ending? I wouldn't watch it again.
