I watched this movie last night and I hurts me to say but I really enjoyed it. Generally, I think DiCaprio is a crappy actor and Scorsese has never lived up to his billing as a great director in my eyes. This movie has somewhat changed my feelings though not completely. I still think they both suck but at least I have a little respect for them now.

Where's the review?

I still don't know how to do the LJ cutting and what not.

Well you don't need all the bells and whistles that some of us put into our reviews, but to do an lj-cut it's fairly simple. In my example, just replace the soft brackets )( with hard brackets ><.

I know exactly which death you speak of, but I can't really what the last shot of the movie is. Care to elaborate?

jasona1 February 26 2007, 01:00:56 UTC

can't really remember what the last shot was...*

Jeez.

SPOILER ALERT FOR EVERYONE!

The balcony scene after Damon's character gets killed, with the digital rat added crawling across the railing.

CONTINUING SPOILER ALERT

Is the death in question Martin Sheen's?

Duse, this movie was awesome until the last 15-20 minutes. It's like nobody could come up with a decent ending so they did what they did. I don't want to give anything away but the ending almost ruined this movie for me.

mikey_iaco March 17 2007, 20:54:51 UTC

I totally agree.

You are so wrong, but I won't hold it against you! LOL
