I can't say it was awful, but it wasn't much better. I find more and more that 'the classics' are really nothing more than classic wastes of time. I don't see how so many reviewers are calling this a masterpiece or a brilliant work of art. I think too many people want to sound like they are cultured and refined and 'feel' a movie and the power behind it, but seriously.... movies are supposed to be entertainment and this one wasn't.

I don't understand the point behind this movie. The storyline really wasn't anything more than following a guy over what seemed to be a couple months. Except for one scene that seems to be the goto line, the acting wasn't very good and the cinematography was lacking.

I would recommend not wasting your time with this movie. I felt I was missing something having not seen it with so many claiming how great it was. Now that I've seen it, all I'm missing is that 2 hrs I'll never get back.

PS. Martin Scorsese only brilliance is in getting us to pay money for his movies.
