Title: Disappointed
Review: How Scorsese won for this and not Goodfellas is beyond me. Unless it was a "make-up" Oscar. This movie tries too hard to be like other movies. From the beginning long shot with Nicholson voice-over to the Joker-esque facial musings, Matt Damon sounding like he just stepped off the Good Will Hunting set, it was just kind of sad. There's some spirited acting but that didn't help the story. There was nothing scary or disturbing about this picture. Maybe I'm just desensitized but Marty should have stopped at Casino.
