I tend to find that the people who dislike this movie 1. HATE historical films in general (unless its a war movie) or 2. Don't give a damn about New York. Since I saw the movie while visiting parents in Boca Raton, FL (aka New York South) those who did not like the film tended to be in the first camp. I'd say that the consensus regarding the film was about 60% in favor with 40% disliking it (no middle ground on this one).

BTW: Taxi Driver is my favorite movie of all time. As for Con Air what a bombastic load of Jerry Bruckheimer produced sh-t!

Dear, it's really " East side, West side, all around the town... " and was written by Mayor Gentle Jim Walker. Please correct your tag line. :-)

P.S. Do you want / need the rest of the lyrics ?
