Why is this movie so underrated compared to Scorsese's other works? I find it weird how despite being the one he won best director and best picture for, and one of his biggest hits, it's so underdiscussed compared to Taxi Driver, Casino and Goodfellas. I'd say it's easily his best

It's fairly bland and not very stylish.
Gavin Jenkins
Literally has like 8.5 on imdb. It's also inferior remake, the "symbolism" is retarded, the passage of time is badly illustrated, the romance is dull, the plot is contrived and stupid, the performances are passable and Wahlberg is the highlight.
Alexander Miller
It's too unconventional.
Lucas King
Has a great flow and is easy to watch. Classic humor, entertaining characters, it has everything.
Hunter Walker
Vera Farmiga is so fucking hot in this

Discaprio is probably the worst actor they could've picked for that role and the movie would objectively become 40% better by just removing every scene Vera Farmiga was in and keeping only the elevator scene. That's where her story should've ended.
Samuel Stewart
Pure kino

Not him but DiCaprio tries too hard in every role.
Blake Lee
The spotlight dissolves when he Damon texting in his jacket pocket are legitimate, artistic kino.
James Morris
Matt Damon ruins every film he's in.
Luke Diaz
It's his most overrated movie ever. Not terrible but the plot is quite forgettable, and the editing sometimes is very distracting.
Christopher Ramirez
Give me one reason why Vera and Leo characters ever became a thing.
Oh look, Matt told her not to put her photo up in his apartment for a valid reason in his mind and she didn't say anything but
>this poor mentally ill boy noticed my photo and asked about it, he totally didn't come all this way to my apartment to have sex with me, what a charming and absolute chad... Better give him sex and take a dump on what little character value I had.
At least she and Matt had some development.
Moving on to dicaprio, he looks constipated and about to open the floodgates throughout the entire film. I'm not saying he's a bad actor but his performance was unbelievable and ruined any immersion for me. Every scene he's in he's in complete shambles. Give it a break, JFC.

Goodfellas

I think DiCaprio is the most replaceable actor of all time. You could literally have anyone else play his roles in his movies and they'd be better.
Luke Sanders

It really weirded me out how she cheated on Matt and passed off Leo's baby as his. Do women really do that, so easily?
Carson Robinson
Did the one shot of the rat really ruin the whole film's reputation?
Bentley Hughes
Still better than Departed, and less praised, or at least talked about.

this is probably the biggest sin a movie can make

why would a rat be on the edge of a nice high rise apartment like that

He's a legit movie star
Jacob Ward
I don't think she's comparable to IRL women. They could do such things but not with whatever is presented in the film since the film lacks any meaningful action or sensible justification taken by her. Her character is an abomination and poorly developed. Only good thing about this movie is Jack Nicholson and Matt Damon. Even that was turning to shit near the end by muddying their relationship for no reason.

I have no positive or negative feelings towards Marky Mark in general but why was his performance in this movie so revered? He didn't do jack shit
Jaxson Wright
it's very popular and memey, wtf are blabbering about? it's a highly flawed clusterfuck, literally beautiful mess: the movie. i love it... costello is the most unhinged wacko ever put on big screen
