Impressive acting and great directing

Rating: 8/10 (27 September 2004)

Raging Bull is definitely a worthy ticket to see. The film was very good and I can believe that it is one of the finest movies ever made. The acting was great. Of course like usual Robert DeNiro puts up an excellent performance and Cathy Moriarty and Joe Pesci also do a fine job. The fights in the ring were awesome. I like how Jake LaMotta gets a few punches and it looks like he was never even hit. What a great boxer! The dialouge was good and the black and white picture was very neatly picked out. The only negative I have for this film is that it got slow at times and kind of got a tiny bit boring but then it got back up to it's hype again and I still enjoyed it. Highly recommend it.
Hedeen's outlook: 8/10 *** B
