I know this is old
But I just watched Gangs of New York on channel 4, I think its an absolutely cracking film. Anyone else watch it tonight or seen it before? Channel 4 may be shit sometimes but at least they have some cracking films on every week.

Re: I know this is old
I struggle to take leonardo di caprio seriously but daniel day lewis is ****ing brilliant in that movie. Cameron Diaz does pretty well considering the normal standard of her movies. The violent Irish are portrayed rather well though so

Re: I know this is old
I still do not understand why people are so anti di caprio all the time, he's been rather excellent in quite some films.

Re: I know this is old
Daniel Day Lewis was awesome, and stupid as it sounds it took me some time to realise it was Cameron Diaz. I felt that di caprio was a bit weak at first in acting terms ie being convincing, but as the film went on his character came out alot more and he certainly flourished (I guess the director wanted it to happen like that...)

His voice is just wrong. I don't really get it but it really irritates me.

Re: I know this is old
I don't like De Caprio myself, and I don't know why. Maybe it's trauma after Titanic, when all the girls cried like hell and I lost them beacause I did not think it was worth crying over
Gangs of New York is awesome. I like movies where theres big groups fighting hand-to-hand. I don't know why there either!

Re: I know this is old
Gangs of New York is a great film. Complete movie.
All the cast are pretty awesome.

Re: I know this is old
I turned over imbetween the NFL, and I was disappointed, no Cameron Diaz nude and mostly boring dialogue. I assume I missed the good bits.
Speaking of films on TV, Devils Advocate was bloody brilliant.

Re: I know this is old
I have a "no Di Caprio" and a "no Hanks" policy.
Sometimes i break my "no Hanks" policy.
My "no Di Caprio" policy is solid tho.

Re: I know this is old
I thought Gangs of New York sucked, switched it off half way through. Maybe it gets better later.

I think they redeemed themselves by showing (tonight) the half tonne man. I found bits of it funny. Especially bits where he was saying he ate the same as a *normal* person but the doctors said he probably ate 15k calories a day.

It was awfully long.
Not in a bad way ('Alexander'), but I could never sit through the whole thing again.

Pretty funny movie, and very enjoyable to watch... or atleast I thought so when I last saw it (about 4 weeks ago on tv)
