too Long, slow, boring

Rating: 4/10 (9 April 2007)

I wouldn't say that it is a bad film, but De Niro is better when he is on the other side of the camera. This film is way to long, with the same kind of scenes all along ( camera on somebody - still - no dialog - we are waiting - what's gonna happen next ? oh ! just a phrase with 3 words...) and besides, it's hard to understand what's going on with all the flashbacks coming and going. You must have a paper and pencil to record all the dates and times to remember when things happened.
And saying that this film is a thriller..... well, depends of course of the definition of thriller. A positive point is that I think it depicts quite well the atmosphere of the time, suspicion everywhere, even your parents, always look behind you.
I'm glad I didn't go to the movies to see it.
Question : what's Joe Pesci doing in this film ??????
