Killer Looks, Naked Ambition

Rating: 10/10 (2 November 2006)

Big Marty Scorsese is back baby and he's better than ever. After seeing this gem, there wasn't enough voltage in the world to electroshock me back into coherence.
The story is riveting mainly thanks to the ingenuity of the premise of having two characters deep undercover and trying to track each other down. You know the edge of your seat? If not, you will by the end of this pulsating thriller.
The ensemble cast is A-MA-ZING! Nicholson can start writing his Oscar acceptance speech now because he's in career best form as local mafia kingpin Frank Costello. Equally impressive are twin hotstuffs Leo Di Caprio and Marky Wahlberg who simply smolder in any scene they share.
What more is there to say? Bring on the sequel, The Arrived!!! (cue the cringe)
