It's pretty awesome.

Rating: 7/10 (12 October 2016)

I love Martin Scorsese. Sometimes I hear people say he isn't as dynamic as he used to be, but I beg to differ. He's amazing. This movie's also pretty amazing, not perfect, and not his best, but definitely different than anything else he's ever done.
There are so many good things that I can say. Mark Ruffalo, Ben Kingsley and Leo ARE amazing in this film. They truly came into form as their characters, as we've all come to expect. It's tone really stands tall throughout the whole movie as well, which is truly something worthy of recognition, though it does bog itself down from the start of the second half UP TO the twist ending (which I refuse to ruin, and hope nobody else does as well for ANY users on IMDb who haven't seen it yet).
It's not perfect, but it offers a sly, dark, nuanced detective story that can often be thoroughly engaging, and often heartbreaking in it's own right.
