Review of Raging Bull (1980) by Eugene G — 15 Jan 2012

I dont know what it is with scorcesse deniro and pesci that makes every movie they make so goddamn amazing but after watching the genesis of the trio, I can see why they kept it up. this is like goodfellas light.

it was a test run of the mafioso mob mentality with a great boxing packaging. lamotta's personal struggle to attain perfection was his strength and weakness. this film showed both so perfectly. I loved it and I will watch it many more times.
