Martin Scorsese
Reviews Featuring Martin Scorsese
Good. Gangs of New York is like a really good looking (but boring) date. You hope there's some sugar waiting for you if you persevere, but you've got to get through three hours of monotony before you reach it. And like a boring date, there's not enough substance here to bring you back for a repeat performance.
Offers us something different from the usual (and increasingly tiresome) gangland matter, but the end product is confusing, muddled-up and far, FAR too long. Any fans of DiCaprio out there (well, it takes all sorts) would be much better off picking up a copy of the vastly-superior Catch Me If You Can.
In this stunning period biopic, Scorsese exposes the American dream to the law of gravity.
This early Scorsese tale of crooks and mooks gets its share of plaudits, but lacks the accomplishment of his later work.
This underwater gangster-meets-gangsta CG animated feature may well have you sleeping with the fishes.
Never mind New York stories some good stories would be a nice start.
Bad-a-bing, bad-a-boom! Add this eye-poppingly brilliant Scorsese masterpiece to your DVD collection and youll have it made.
Another Scorsese classic, its not the horror film it was touted as, but thats OK, because its just plain good.
It's got gritty realism, iconic lines and Robert De Niro at his very best. If you haven't seen this yet, I'm very disappointed in you. Tssk.
For once it's a remake of an excellent international offering that seems worth it thanks to Scorsese doing what he does best and a wonderful ensemble cast.
Hugo looks exquisite and the plot is as mature and engaging as you'd expect from a Scorcese film but sometimes the cinematography is a little clichéd in its use. Good for kids, great for adults who love film.
Scorsese and De Niro at their best together in this rousing and depressing boxing biopic. A masterpiece.
