Summary of this DVD...
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.
This type of DVD is good for...
Beats me.
I especially liked...
Joe Pesci as Joe, Jake's brother and sometime fight manager.
This DVD made me feel...
like I wasted over 2 hours to find out that Hollywood sometimes makes some lemons that they try to package as lemonade.
The cast of this DVD...
was okay and it's directed by Martin Scorcese, but I just don't see why it would make any list of great films.
I don't recommend this DVD because...
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.
