Homophobic

Rating: 3/10 (7 October 2006)

The movie was pretty good, except for the excessive use of fag and faggot. I am sure the Irish in Boston say it all the time, but really Martin do you think it was a little overkill? I guess what was more disturbing was when the audience laughed, not once, but every time. The accents were very inconsistent, more of a distraction than anything else. Jack Nicholson did an amazing job, as always is expected, but the only truly convincing accent came from Martin Sheen. Beware that there is some rather realistic gun violence. The blood spattering is very graphic and sometimes jolting.
Mr. Scorsese sorry, but this definitely wasn't one of your better films. Maybe you have already done your best work. Too bad because I used to be a big fan. Hopefully you next film will work up to something memorable.
