Another one of Leo's psychedelic journeys

Rating: 9/10 (7 August 2010)

Will definitely be in most people's top 10 list when the year is up, I know it's in mine. Mesmerizing from start to finish, with the brilliant Scorsese sprinkling in false truths and red herrings along the way. DiCaprio is once again solid as a U.S Marshal who's seemingly losing his mind. The supporting cast is subdue, but effective. What really got me was the way Scorsese is able to keep you on edge even when you're seemingly unaware, with lingering and extended shots, quick camera cuts, and freeze frames.
It keeps you on your toes from the get-go and you are eager to see the plot unravel itself, and it does so in outstanding fashion. Revelations are made, and more importantly, it will have you questioning it as soon as it's concluded. In a nutshell, a brilliant film.
