This movie was made in 1980 and is on a lot of Best Movies of all times lists. Well, I just don't see how that can be the case. I finally watched it and I thought it was a boring boxing movie.

I thought that Robert De Niro, who I genuinely like, overacted and using black and white to film the movie didn't do a thing for me.

I liked Joe Pesci's performance much better than DeNiro's. There is no redeeming quality in Jake La Motta as portrayed by De Niro.

I didn't enjoy the movie, but I watched it until the bitter end. I thought it was mediocre, at best. I don't see why it makes all the lists that it does. I asked Mr. hooves about it and he doesn't see it either.

Beats me.

Joe Pesci as Joe, Jake's brother and sometime fight manager.

like I wasted over 2 hours to find out that Hollywood sometimes makes some lemons that they try to package as lemonade.

was okay and it's directed by Martin Scorcese, but I just don't see why it would make any list of great films.

it is dated and dopey and it was a waste of time, but it showed me that Hollywood's Oscar picks are sometimes bizarre and wacky. I wonder how many, in 1980, even saw this pain in the hindquarters film.
