Review of Gangs of New York (2002) by Deke P — 21 Nov 2015
It's never less than engaging even if you're honest it' kind of overblown nonsense. Day Lewis is great but Di Caprio and Diaz peel off the wallpaper with their twee appalling Irish accents.
Plus what is it really about? It loses the plot massively in the final third and practically forgets the track of what it was trying to get at to finally limp towards a conclusion. Oooh to be sure, we're Irish and we do love a good fight so we do, odd New York concluding montage which ignores 9/11 as well?
