A Masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (7 October 2006)

Martin Scorcese has truly outdone himself with this one. In the tradition of Deer Hunter and Taxi Driver, Scorcese has again produced a masterpiece. Full of suspense,thrill, and superb acting. I found the long movie;2:35 minutes felt like half an hour as twist after twist unfolded. Nicholson delivered a brilliant performance as the crimelord Costello. But the other performances were excellent as well. I wont get into the nitty gritty plot but as far as I am concerned this is a much deserved Oscar calibur movie for Scorcese. If he doesn't win Best Director for this I will truly be baffled. 10 out of 10 stars. This is a must see if you are a Scorcese fan, or if you really like a movie with endless twists. This film is blessed with brilliant acting and a plot that's smooth as silk. I recommend it over all else at the movies right now. Truly excillence
