Review title: the film/ de niro
Product review: ...a disappointment and major blow to the De Niro "can do no wrong" theory. The man is truly a legend and I still hold him in high regard but my god this film was bad.It was suppose to reflect what America's love of violence is like - a condemning look, yet it didn't achieve it. Scene after scene of pointless violence soon made it hypocritical and the script was appalling.De Niro just wasn't up to scratch, he's slumming it in this film and I resent him for it. I resent him because he is one of the few actors I choose to admire and trust his judgement of films thus forking out money to see them and then being let down by something like 15 Minutes.I haven't lost faith though, as I said I still respect him. I just think of Taxi Driver, Goodfellas and Midnight Run and loads of other films and then remember why I like him.De Niro fans - don't avoid this film see it by all means. It's a harsh reminder that he isn't perfect.
