About this movie

Two-time Academy Award-winner Robert De Niro ("GoodFellas," "The Godfather, Part II") stars in Martin Scorsese's ("Raging Bull," "The Age of Innocence") drama of young men coming to manhood by the code of New York's Little Italy. A harrowing, intense, and grueling dramatic experience -- brilliantly acted and directed. Also starring Academy Award-nominee Harvey Keitel ("Pulp Fiction," "The Piano") and future producer Amy Robinson ("After Hours," "Running on Empty"). Inducted into the Library of Congress National Film Registry. Recently selected by the prestigious American Film Institute as one of the 400 greatest American films of all time. Leonard Maltin praises this as the "technically dazzling film that put director Scorsese on the map... and deservedly so," giving it his highest rating of "****" (four stars).

Ratings and reviews

I can't figure out how A) this is a mafia movie and B) how it got 97% on rotten tomatoes. There's a few bar fights, a lot of drinking, whining and acting like ten year Olds, a guy gets shot in the bathroom, and the last 5 minutes or so looks like it should have been in the middle somewhere. Yeah, real excit....zzzzzzzzz

Scorsese story compares to what Fellini achieved with I Vitelloni.
