good movie

Rating: 7/10 (7 October 2006)

but not original. Scorsese simply adapted the plot of "Mou gaan dou", a Hong Kong Gangster movie of 2002. Down to the detail of the two guys hang out by the street joking about spotting cops. At the very beginning of the movie they gave a bit of credit to Media Asia. Overall a great adaption, I think most people went to see Jack Nicholson. Leonardo DeCaprio's best act so far. As it doesn't make sense for most people to seek out the original movie, go watch this one. Personally I think the original one has a more developed plot. This one was rushed a bit at the end. Farmiga's role was somehow confusing. But well, didn't go in to see Analyze that.
