Early reports say its his best since Goodfellas and what a cast! Nicholson finally in a Scorsese film and playing a villain for a change! Most likely not crap.

Despite it's remake status, I am going to pre-emptively vote "Not Crap".

Pretty good overall, Scorsese takes what would be cliche material and makes it interesting. Solid performances from the ensemble cast. I would place it second tier under the likes of Mean Streets, Taxi Driver or Goodfellas. Not Crap!

My girlfriend and I are going to see it this afternoon.

I'm very happy to hear that Scorsese has made it out of Tradition of Quality land.

Horrible. Not even on par with some of Scorcese's overlooked and much better movies like After Hours and Color of Money. 50 minutes too long, a convoluted "Who cares?" plot, pedestrian photography, cardboard characters with no history or motivation whatsoever. And the acting---good Lord. Jack Nicholson pretty much plays Jack Nicholson, and not once do you believe he's anyone else.

This might be one of the most overrated movies I've ever seen.

Easily Scorsese's best film since Goodfellas. He got good performances out of actors I normally dislike (Damon, DiCaprio, Nicholson).

Was a good flick, enjoyed it.
Two dudes started fistfighting in the audience about halfway thru, that was amusing.

Not Crap overall. Good performances from DiCaprio, Nicholson and Wahlberg steals all his scenes like he did in I Heart Huckabees.

DiCaprio is sorta Joe Pesci's replacement- love the scene where he beats up the guys with "Nobody But You" in the background. Straight out of GoodFellas.

Not Crap and if it was made by just about anyone other than Scorsese it would be described as genius...but Scorsese has done it before and better. But still NC.

Nicholson should have been pulled back a bit and somehow forced to surprise us. I'm not sure what Scorsese sees in DiCaprio (who still hasn't topped his Gilbert Grape performance) but he's better in this than the other 2 Scorsese films.

My vote for best performance goes to Matt Damon. Complex but understated...so unfortunately he may get lost amid the scenery chewing.

I'd be interested in hearing from those more familiar with the South Boston Irish accent. Who got it right and who didn't?

Is this movie essentially a remake of Infernal Affairs? I have tried to avoid finding out too much, but what little i have found out makes it sound exremely similar. No spoilers please.
Scorcese has dissapointed me to much in recent years, but i'll probably be going to see it at the weekend regardless. Good to see at least some of you enjoyed it.
