Went to see it, opening night, last night. Packed, cause it's based in Boston. And because it's Martin Scorcese. And because it's got a cast which makes most women cry tears of joy.

Reviews?

I loved it, especially because it sounds like everyone I know here in Boston. And because they had wickedly hilarious insults:

"Only people who do that are cunts. Are you calling us cunts?"

The ending is a little ridiculous, but what're you gonna do, eh?

I recommend everyone seeing this. It'll be quoted for years to come.

I had a great time. Crazy violent...but miles better than his last few films.

Great Movie!! The part was perfect for Jack Nicholson.

I had tickets for it last night at 10:30 - mainly because nothing else at the theater looked interesting. We were told to get into line early, because it would likely be sold out. At 9pm after dinner I look and there's already people in line. We decided to bag the idea, got our $19 back and headed home.

Maybe we'll see it on Netflix.

We saw this last night and we thought it was great. Awesome dialogue. It may be long but it's paced nicely so that you barely notice it. :thumbup:

Oh, and hooray for 5 dollar student prices.

This movie was really good. I loved all the parallels in the plot.
