I just barely saw this show and have to right this before I go see it again with my buds, but seriously.............

This movie is so great. It is now my fav Scorsese movie, it just barely beat Goodfellas with the last 45 minutes. I don't wanna spoil anything, but I want this to be the main thread to discuss this amazing film.

It has an amazing soundtrack and a couple of Stones nods in there (Exile on Main Street CD case.....big part of plot), and a couple Stones tracks.

Scorsese is a fucking genius, here he is able to channel the testosterone and sometimes iffy acting of: LEO DICAPRIO, MARK WHALBERG, MATT DAMON, and ALEC BALDWIN and get career defining performances from all of them. JACK NICHOLSON and MARTIN SHEEN are as usual spot on and very believable, both playing characters not too far from themselves (leave out the bullets and maniacal violence).

It has a better ending than Reservoir Dogs (people who see it will know what I mean). In this movie....nothing is sacred.

Thoughts are great, let's keep this going
