Great Movie! Leonardo has changed my perspective of him.

Rating: 9/10 (4 November 2006)

I have to say the entire cast in this movie were all shining. However after being such a Leonardo DiCaprio hater, he was the one who I truly took notice. Long gone is the baby faced actor trying to be a man.. He has completely shed that persona, and I only hope he continues to amaze the movie going public with more creative and assertive roles. Jack Nicholson was his normal greatness. Matt Damon, Alec Baldwin, Martin Sheen, and Mark Wahlberg added weight, depth and dimension to the film, without their characters overpowering the each other. Martin Scorsese was able to tell a story with directness and no overkill. This movie deserves an Oscar for Best Director! Hats off to Martin Scorsese!!!
