Genre: Action
Director: Sergio Leone
Cast: Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, Burt Young, James Woods, Elizabeth McGovern, Treat Williams, Tuesday Weld, Danny Aiello, William Forsythe, Richard Bright
Mid-1900s' Jewish gangsters in New York City is the theme of this movie, which, after a confusing beginning, becomes an effective vehicle for Robert De Niro.

This is the "full" version, which is significantly better than the one originally released which had been chopped to a point that it often didn't make sense. 1 User Review

| | A psychological thriller where buckwheats arent pancakes! | Chick 'O Flix 03/22/2009 | | Christopher Walken, James Caan, Treat Williams and Andy Garcia lead a cast complete with 5 star headliners and a dark script into one of the great bargaining, murder for hire screw ups that is truly of the suspense genre. Wait and listen for the word "buckwheats" in almost every scene, but make sure you know what it means. It is a very dark tour of Denver, wether you're dead or alive.Enjoy. |
