Absolutely disgusting

Rating: 1/10 (22 March 2007)

"Cops and criminals... What's the difference?" I'm not sure Martin Scorcese knows the difference. I can't believe this trash won anything. It is racist, anti-gay, disgustingly violent, and ridiculously vulgar. But the worst offense: It wasn't even a good movie. I hated just about every single character. Apparently if your movie has enough blood and gore, plenty of bigotry, and has a few hundred different uses of the word "fuck," and still manages to avoid an NC17, you too can win best director and screenplay.
Since Scorcese and Monahan can't tell the difference between cops and criminals, when they need one, I hope they get the other. And since they think firefighters are just a bunch of homos, I hope they're victims of the next terror attack.
That, dear reader, is justice.
