Favorite movie of all time

Rating: 10/10 (6 January 2014)

This is my favorite movie of all time. Daniel day Lewis' character " The Butcher" is the best character I've ever seen in a film. I've seen reviews where people complain about it not being " historically correct " no where in the film does it say it's completely based off of history. Anyone who knows about history knows that it was called the five points and that the " Gangs of New York" existed but the names and a lot of the factual events are unknown. Leonardo Dicaprio is fantastic as always but Daniel Day Lewis steals the show and he is why this movie is so great. Sad to see it's only a 7.5 rating. Don't let that fool you this movie is a hidden gem and will make you feel like you went on an amazing adventure.
