They should change the name to Wolf of Hollywood and it would be more truthful.
Pray America is Waking
I haven’t felt any “shaking” out here on the eastern end o flyover country.
It’s 3 hours long. No one is going to sit for 3 hours of the F word.
He can't worry about it. He has meat for brains.
What is the obsession with this idiot and that whiny ass twerp DiCrapio? What is it, is he fascinated by his promotions of the global warming scam? That the little dip never worked a real job in his life so therefore that gives him cred to dictate to the rest of us serfs? Give me a break He’s the King of miscast actors, if Scorcese wanted to make a movie about singer James Brown no doubt he would cast this twerp as James Brown. He already tried to do it with the Frank Sinatra movie he’s trying to get made, DiCrapio with his borderline woman voice cast as Frank Sinatra, oh yes that will work. I am so sick to death of this Scorcese and this little doosh DiCrapio, and these critics who practically fall over themselves in praise for all these crap movies they make.
Besides the language, this film also has a great deal of nudity/sexual content. Amazingly, I read a positive review from the online version of “Christianity Today”.
While I can handle the F-word every now and then and have been known to use it when the occasion called for it, if it’s used with in five minutes of the movie starting, I’m gone...
Displays a lack of creativity, ingenuity and mastery of the language.
I enjoyed ‘Frozen’.
It was a long time ago but I remember seeing gangs of New York with my family- my cousin and her husband. And we’re Irish New Yorker with ancestors in the real story
At the end, the lights came on in the theater and my cousin and I looked at each other and we laughed hilariously
It was so bad it was hilarious
Dicaprio, I saw five minutes of titanic and had to turn it off
Sat through that pornographic the departed and gave him for whatever stupid reason another chance with Gatsby
All were much worse than a waste of time
But I do not get why people say these films are good
I do not get it
That's all he's ever been. It's just that some of his movies have been entertaining in spite of it.
It’s art.
You may not like the language but it is dead on accurate. You will never find an environment with more cursing. Movie was good but not great. A sort of self-ripoff of Goodfellas.
So, because it’s “accurate” in the use of the F-word, I’m suppose to pay big bucks to watch it.
No thanks...I’ll just stay “ignorant” of the culture where this kind of language is acceptable.
I have to thank you. I’m no fan of Daniel Day Lewis (King of the overactors), and in general am a Scorsese fan.
I never saw Gangs of New York, because watching poor Irish people fighting in Five-Points wasn’t exactly ‘Up, up with people’ for me, and I also wasn’t a fan of Cameron Diaz either.
I was always going to ‘get around’ to watching, but never did.
You mentioned there’s a scene where the US Navy shells Manhattan, and after you revealed that it was like taking a load off. I’ll never see it.
I saw American Hustle two weeks ago. Outstanding movie, in my opinion. Smart movie that treated their audience like they were smart.
Also, no sex. Revealing 70’s Cosmpolitan Magazine cover model blouses? Absolutely.
Very entertaining. I’ve seen critics tee-off on Jennifer Lewis’ dance thing toward the end of the movie, but she’s bat-shite crazy, and frankly, I watched my mom do worse growing up in CA in the 1970’s.
Anyway, thank you. I’ll never see Gangs.
Starts with an f.
Who told you to watch it?
Well, it seems as if Scorcese and DeCaprio et al are telling all of us it’s a great movie...do you not get that?
What I could F-word say right now......
You are surprised that someone is promoting their own product?
Really?
Have you never heard of marketing?
