I just didn't like this film. Part of the problem is I am not at all an Andy Farcia fan, he's doing his wannabe Al Pacino bit as usual…

Here's three iconic filmmakers presenting three different tales set in the Big Apple, those filmmakers being Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford…

I loved Scorsese and Allen's segments- these were wonderfully contrasted pieces. Coppola's, however, is rather pithy in comparision…

This is probably the best anthology film I've see. The only thing that brings it down is the Coppola portion of it…

Scorcese: 6/10 it's good but hindered by not feeling real coppola: 2/10 which is sadly even worse than his par after the 70s allen: 7.5/10…

What a hotchpotch of films! The first (Scorcese) is woefully overblown, heavy-handed, banal and predictable…

Description: ''New York Stories is a 1989 anthology film; it consists of three shorts, with the central theme being New York City…

First part of the stories was ruined by…

Interesting array of shorts, with Scorsese's effort standing out most…

Coppola's story is terrible. Scorcese's story is really great but stretched. Woody Allen's one is perfect for the format…

I only got to see Scorcese's story which was really good…
