5Absolutely awful, but totally riveting, nonetheless!  Jul 31, 2008
This film/movie is absolutely awful, dreadfully violent, pretty disgusting, and likely to be nightmare-inducing, but it is totally riveting, nonetheless - I give it five stars, but I don't recommend watching it and won't do so myself again!

5Gangs of New York blu-ray  Jul 31, 2008
this film looks incredible on blu-ray. If you love the movie and only have it on DVD buy it in blu-ray and you'll see a new movie. Plus you get $10 back from Sony if you send it the DVD UPC and your blu-ray sales receipt!

2Gangs of nothing.  Jul 11, 2008
Gangs of New York by Martin Scorsese could easily be his worst epic ever! I could never get into this bloody, violent film. Cameron Diaz looks so out of place in this film and that horrible accent she tries to pull off, jeez she belongs in a romantic comedy! There's no doubt Leonardo DiCaprio and Daniel Day-Lewis are gifts to the acting world but even these talented guys can't save this slow, boring train wreck. If you want a great Scorsese film then see Raging Bull.

1Godawful Blu Ray disk  Jun 24, 2008
Disney just slapped the old transfer made for the DVD on this BD disk. The DVD was notorious for bad image quality with grotesquely overdone digital sharpening and noise filtering. The Blu Ray is the same, justh with additional resolution to see all the uglyness with enhanced clarity.
This is a crap transfer that should be withdrawn immediately or it will damage Disney's reputation of releasing high quality HD disks. Yes, it is this bad compared to the state of the art from Disney and other studios.

4Scorsese's at it again.  Jun 20, 2008
Scorsese's direction is right-on in this period film. Very impressive acting by Diaz is surprising as well. Lewis and DiCaprio give Oscar worthy performances as well. The screenplay is so convoluted in sections that you'll wonder if it will ever straighten out: It does. This spool of yarn that irritates you to unravel, reveals a beautiful pearl inside.
