Great stuff

Rating: 6/10 (18 May 2016)

The third film in Sergio Leone's Once Upon a Time trilogy. Once Upon a Time in America is an absolute giant of a film and is also a great film in the gangster genre. It provides an objective viewpoint of the lives of Jewish gangsters during the American Prohibition era. It doesn't romanticise their actions, but rather allows the viewer to make up their own minds. Everything about the film also felt authentic from the dialogue, to the costumes to the props. Every seemed genuine. Although, the three and a half hour run time does make this film a bit of a slow-burner, it also delves very deeply into each character's back story.
