I almost completely disagree.
I liked the length, pace and editing.
The ending wasn't the typical feelgood ending that Hollywood's Crapomatic Script-o-tron 3000 would churn out.
Real life isn't always a neat story that makes sense.
I actually enjoyed seeing worfwess Arek Baldwin say "I LOVE THE PATRIOT ACT!!"
I expected to see Jack steal the show but Leonardo DiCraprio was great.
I didn't think it was gratuitously violent given the characters. IMO it didn't glamorize the mob guys.
There were all kinds of plot points they never really resolved because you could not possibly believe everything the characters said. Like real life it was much more informative to watch what the characters did than what they said.
I don't know if it was Scorsese's best work or not but I thought it was worth the price of matinee admission.
WHAT DID YOU think of Flags of Our Father?
