is surely film of the year.
Every decade that I have been visiting the Cinema , Martin Scorsese ,
http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/contributor/1800014966/filmography
has produced at least one classic film that defines its relative generation.
From the creepy noir of Taxi Driver , the stunning bio-pic of Raging Bull and the ultra violence of Good Fellas he always entertains and illuminates.
In this Century he has provoked career - defining performances from Jack Nicholson

Matt Damon

Mark Wahlberg

and Leonardo Dicaprio

and even Ray Winston

who hasn't really dropped his cockney accent since I was fortunate enough to see him at the Donmar Warehouse

in a play directed by Sam Mendes

So this extremely violent gangster movie keeps one gripped from start to finish ,
despite its bum -numbing length .
It seems that everyone in Hollywood is involved,,even Brad Pitt is the producer!
A must see...
