Gangs of New York - Recensioni

An ironic, emotional, gory revision of the American Experiment, marred by narrative problems but sufficiently awesome in its ambitious scale and intentions to rate as a must-see.

...en absolut anbefalelsesværdig opvisning i storslåede scener og blændende skuespil.

It’s a spectacle of awful lessons, many long lost today.

That American democracy emerged from this cauldron is miraculous. We put the Founding Fathers on our money, but these Founding Crooks for a long time held sway.

Every resident in the whole, grimy mosaic of Scorsese's Olde Big Apple -- the thieves and the reformers, the poor and the dirt-poor -- knows how to needle the guy next to him.

...a monumental piece of filmmaking that at once tells a little-explored aspect of the making of New York City -- and America...

Scorsese's historical epic is certainly teeming with life and the crowd scenes are as confidently mounted as you'd expect.

...is an elegy for everyone, and everything, that lingers on, long after they have been forgotten, in our dreams.

...en episk, ambitiös och makalöst välgjord film som präglas av den autentiska tidskänslan och de briljanta skådespelarna.
