Reviews

barteknittner It's a great movie, no doubt about that. Some migth say to many nude scenes, I agree, in some places it was wrong, like when with the kids scene. De Niro is also great in that movie. Plot is amazing, but still it is a adaptation. NO ORIGIN. That takes some beaty of it. Also TOO LONG

cathylr One of the most beautiful and memorable films I saw as a child. It brings us in the darkest ambiance of the US, with characters that we are seeing grow. An absolute master piece.

MJB784 It's a great mobster movie. It's about the life of this gangster through his childhood and adulthood including him imagining his future through a dream state of inhaling opium. I have a feeling that all the scenes taken place before his opium smoking intro were real and he was hallucinating the scenes when he has grey hair. For one explanation, the phone kept ringing as a sign that something is off. He's slowly heading into the dream world from the opium. The story is told through memory and dreams and how the two begin and end similarly. For every time a scene ends, a similar image begins. It's 3 hours and 49 minutes, but doesn't feel long.

donaldricco The unending ringing of the telephone at the beginning really put me off, and I never recovered. While it is a good looking film, it is also boring and drawn out. And some of the actors are just terrible.
