Cebalord Very best movie i ever watch

Protraph Lack of good storyline.

SpecialsTarget Disturbing yet enthralling

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

tpaladino Hmmm... a tremendously talented young cast, tried and true subject matter and Martin Scorcese producing. A sure thing, right?Nope. Not even close. Before seeing Deuces Wild, I'd read all the mediocre and bad reviews on here but decided to give it a shot anyway, because I've been pleasantly surprised in the past. But not this time. The film is weak in every possible way, except perhaps for the setting and art direction. The story is nothing but one cliché after another, with zero originality and very little to hold your interest. The director managed the clever feat of getting horrible performances from excellent actors, although the writers deserve some credit for that also, as the script seems to have been written by a middle school class that was locked in a room with a DVD of West Side Story and a crate of doo-wop albums as their only reference material.I honestly couldn't even get halfway through it. I have no idea how Scorcese could have attached his name to this project, even as a producer. Did he even read the script?It's just a really unfortunate movie. If you're an absolute die-hard '50s addict, I suppose you'll find something entertaining in there, but other than that, steer clear. Not worth your time.

jeremy3 I wouldn't recommend this movie, other than on a rainy day. It was basically a hyped up hormones, macho-ism worshiping film about local hoods in Brooklyn. There was the typical clichés, boy meets girl, etc. However, there are a few things that went well: 1) The bad guy was creepy. He was jealous and bitter, like a lot of wannabe hoods who did hard time.2) The older brother was trying to be sedate and practical, while the younger brother was naive and reactive.3) They lived with their mothers, who were going mad. Probably pretty close to true.4) There was no escape from the hood. You were stuck there, and in that environment.5) The fights were not phony. They really did beat each other up, and the last ones standing were the winners. For once, they make the fights look realistic. It wasn't as though they were great fighters, but they fought until they dropped. It was very realistic.However, don't expect too much depth in this film. It was just something to watch on a rainy day.

me-729 Why they have this movie listed under drama I'll never know. For the first 30 minutes I thought it was pretty funny, then I looked it up in the database only to find that it wasn't supposed to be a comedy. Ruined the rest of the picture.One of the funnest lines was a "kinder-hood" commenting one evening on the Christmas music playing in the background. "Christ, it's gotta be 115 degrees". The next day (presumably still at least 100 degrees) we see him wearing his leather jacket. Great gag! You can see why these kids are so tough, though. Why they have a chip on their shoulder. They come from a tough neighborhood - only one pool to go to. What satire!It is easily twice as good as a comedy as it is a drama. On a scale of 10* I give it a rock solid 1/2* as a comedy.

polledude What a great movie! Trying to catch the feeling of honor, loyalty, courage and brotherhood all in one film isn't the easiest thing to do. Yet, in my opinion, they succeeded very well. Feelings we all had to some extent when we were groing up. Above all, they also gave us a lovestory that wasn't cheesy or corny, but true and honest (and no, I'm not a girl nor gay...). Furthermore, there is this kind of 'cool' that slightly reminds me of Tarantino's reservoir dogs. Not the film, but the feeling you had. Off course, a lot less mature feeling of cool. But hey, it's there.Refreshing cinema, proving that it doesn't have to cost a lot of money to produce great films!
