Henry Thomas
Reviews Featuring Henry Thomas
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.
Fans of the novel will no doubt want to see this out of pure curiosity, but it offers little different from the average period drama. Garai is one to look out for in the future, though.
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 prequel to all American haunted house movies, the past is just like the future.
This twisting and turning romantic marathon has its share of strong points but brevity and plausibility arent among them.
Two appealing leads and a superb performance from Richard Jenkins make this weeper more watchable than Id expected.
