The Best Movie of the Decade

Rating: 10/10 (12 October 2006)

Up there with Goodfellas, Taxi Driver and Raging Bull. And in many ways, it's better than them all. It has the depth of Taxi Driver, touching on the human values and ethics of today's corrupt world. It has the same style of Goodfellas, in it's unexpected violence, and hilarious dialog. Moreover, it has Raging Bull's delicate touch of human passion and emotion, which carries this adrenaline charged story. It's quite impossible to compare one Scorsese film to another. The only ones that even resemble each other are Casino and Goodfellas. (one could argue Goodfellas and Mean Streets.) There is no way that this movie can be hyped up enough, but don't let anybody ruin it for you! (It is very unpredictable.) The music is amazing, and unlike Goodfellas, it doesn't carry the movie, it only emphasizes on the situational moments. This is the best movie of the decade, the best I've seen in a theater since Fight Club. Jack Nicholson is back, DiCaprio is finally here, and its the best movie both of their careers.....hands down.
