One of the best of all time

Rating: Null/10 (11 August 2004)

The European version of this movie us one of my favorites of all time. It has many scenes that have stuck in my mind over the years long after I've forgotten other movies. For those used to American movies, this movie is paced very slow. Even though this movie is extremely violent I did let my children see it. The good and bad of human character is played out in a realistic fashion. The violence is also in context. Character development is better than any other movie I know. The movie is also very interesting for history buffs. You really think you are looking at 1920's New York City. This is a must see film for movie lovers and history buffs.
