Product: Mean Streets (1973)
Rating: 2.0
I obviously missed the point...
I found this film to be anticlimatic, and not that interesting. (I thought the ending was a real letdown, in contrast to those who thought it was so terrific). After reading positive reviews I was really looking forward to a great tale, but didnt see much of a plot. It seems to me that if it wasnt for the big names in this film, it would be a forgotten one. If you like DeNiro, and dont mind older films, Deer Hunter is a much better film and much more thought provoking. That film has a point (perhaps Mean Streets had one but if it did it was too boring for me to notice), and is worth multiple viewings. I probably wouldnt waste my time watching Mean Streets again.
