CommentsXp Best movie ever!

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Tweetienator Gangs of New York gets a lot of bad and harsh critics but I like this one a lot. It is for certain no movie with super deep story and it may not be historical accurate (I can't judge that because lack of knowledge) but it is imo an epic movie with a fine cast (Daniel Day-Lewis, Liam Neeson, John C. Reily, DiCaprio, Cameron Diaz and some more) and on top a perfect cinematography and big production.Again Martin Scorsese got me enchanted with this one (like with some of his later works: Shutter Island, The Departed, Hugo). Gangs of New York is maybe not one of his top works but beats easy 99% of all movies released in the categories drama and crime.Love, hate, revenge, crime, the fight for survival in a dark world - a movie the word epic is forged for.

amyliancc Atr first it was confusing to follow along but twenty minutes in I managed to sort of understand the storyline.It was interesting and I soon found out why the movie is rated R. I never heard of anything about the Five Points nor did I realize how violent people reacted to draft.

oliverkelleycc The start was slow, and the plot seemed to jump around and was hard to follow at times. Often, it threw us into situations without any reason as to why they were there. Some situations were also unnecessary to the plot of the movie. Those are the problems I had, but I appreciated the main character's motive and how he developed his relation with the man who killed his father. The overall character development was thorough as well, and the historical setting as a motive to some actions also fit cohesively. I enjoyed watching this movie, except for a few parts

taylorcalistocc The start of the movie was slow and the plot seemed to jump around a lot, making it hard to follow at times. Certain sexual scenes were unnecessary to the flow of events. Also, some parts were unrealistic. For example in the beginning fight scene, thousands of people died and there was minimal blood. Another example is how a man could be stabbed in the chest and stand and talk as if nothing happened to him. But, the main character's motive and drive was refreshing and interesting in how he developed a relationship with his father's killer. His development was thorough and his motive fit well with historical events. Overall, it was a good movie that kept interest, but had a few parts that could've been better well done.
