Not sure what all the fuss is about. ..

Rating: 6/10 (18 December 2006)

Mediocre movie, , I'm sure much of it's popularity is due to the Hinckley/Foster/Reagan connection, but it really is not as good as it's hype. If you want to see a GREAT movie, like others here have CLAIMED this is, watch Boondock Sints, or watch Dog Day Afternoon, or watch A Clockwork Orange, ,, but Taxi Driver, , ,save that for another occasion. The plot is thin to a point of almost non-existence, the entire movie seems to be a grand display of hypocrisy. De Niro's character is some weird combination of a vigilante and an outright criminal with murderous intent. I hope the soundtrack was SUPPOSED to sound like tracks from cheap pornos, because that is exactly how it comes off, I hope nobody wold be incompetent enough to do that on accident.
