If you want to see a lot of action, experience suspense and like surprises, this is one movie that fits the bill. Aside from having a stellar cast, the acting was superb and the plot thickened with every passing moment. Think you can guess the ending? I thought I could, but was mistaken. This movie will keep you glued up till the end. Don't let this one pass you by. I rarely give 5 star ratings, but this one earned it.

Wish i had rented it much sooner. It is hard for me to find someone who remembers much detail now to talk to about it. It is one of those flicks that you may want to watch twice just to get everything, but it is powerful and exciting. Not for kids!!

Way too much cursing for my personal taste. Unecessary if you ask me. And had the potential to be a great movie, but endng threw the movie right off that track.

Not a bad movie, but not a great movie either... there were some good surprises, including the ending (which I won't spoil here), but all in all it wasn't more than a 3-star effort by any of the actors in it. Although, DiCaprio was pretty good, and better than I've seen him in other movies. For a Scorsese movie, I was surprised at how dull some of the scenes were, I am usually a fan of his work but this one just didn't do it for me.
