Disappointed

Rating: 3/10 (7 October 2006)

Jack Nicholson is a wonderful actor and is wasted in this over violent and bloody movie. It was too long and sometimes boring. The cast is uniformly good but the plot was mundane. Why do I have to write ten lines to tell you that I briefly fell asleep a couple of times. I came out of the theater thinking I will avoid Scorsese movies from now on. What more can one say than an excellent cast cannot make a dull movie exciting and interesting. It was a waste of $24.00 (for the two of us). I am tired of seeing blood spattered all over floors, walls and people. This gore is no substitute for a skillfully written and filmed scenario. Surely Scorsese can do better.
