Even if the film has fkaws I can always find something in a Scorsese film that will have me saying what a genius he is. I think Taxi Driver is his most complete film. Kundun for some reason isn’t as well liked but I really enjoyed it. Gangs of New York is brilliant with a few let downs in the dialogue between Cameron Diaz and Leonardo DiCaprio, Day-Lewis rules the film. The Aviator has a few let down moments but is really good overall. The Departed is gold, though the pacing is a little off.

I think he is a skilled actor. But I find that people over praise his skills.
He has been in some really good movies and performed well, but I think he’s been in an equal amount of horrible movies.
While others… say Daniel Day Lewis… are just amazing actors and perform their hearts out every time.

I think Cage is a actually a very skilled actor who’s just as comfortable with the mainstream as he is with left field productions.

I hate people who comment nonsense. For everything has its time and place. If you deign to post a comment that is on the master Scorsese. Let the bullshit somewhere else, or another director who deserves it. Scorsese deserves only praise and our respect.

Scorsese is a very intelligent and sexy man!

i might be biased here cuz Scorsese is my favorite director, but The Aviator is a great film. I don’t know about Cape Fear since I havent seen it yet.

What you seem to forget is how much of an effect a director has on an actor’s performance.
It’s not just chance that actors give some of their best performances in his movies.
For example Nicolas Cage. He was amazing in Bringing out the Dead. But overall… he’s really not that great of an actor.. personally I think he’s really bad… but still in Bringing out the Dead he was great.

The girl was a huge whore and he didn’t know her age at the time.

ya im a big fan to but i havent seen half of those. is cape fear and aviator good?

hogger129  on December 15th, 2009

My point is that the actors are what makes the films great, not so much that the plot or other elements of the film themselves are great. The acting is what makes a movie legendary, memorable or just a flash in the pan.

hogger129  on December 15th, 2009

Scorsese is a great film director, but I think what makes his movies what they are is the acting. I mean like take The Departed for example. Without all the talented acting, would it have been as good of a movie? I mean it’s like Heat and L.A. Takedown by Michael Mann. L.A. Takedown was basically the same movie with a less developed plot, but Heat became legendary because it had legendary actors in it. Possibly the best movie I’ve ever seen. I don’t think even Scorsese can top it.

Sad to report that Martin Scorcese is one of the hollywood elite who signed a petition to release Roman Polanski.

When Roman Polanski was 44, he drugged and sodomized a 13 year old girl, over her repeated protests. He was convicted but fled the country before sentencing. He just got caught decades later.

you should also see age of innocence, its one of the best of his work

njac1946  on December 15th, 2009

njac1946  on December 15th, 2009

hello

dude i think that in some instances scorsese is severely overrated, like for instance cape fear, casino (which is an attempt at replicating the success and format of goodfellas), the aviator (leo di caprio sucked, always sucks, regardless of the director involved), and gangs of new york are bad and overrated movies, with blatant cliches strewn all about. however, all the other ones on the list are, quite naturally, epic.
