    The film that many consider the finest of its decade, Raging Bull, has aged well, and not just because it was filmed in black and white.

    A fiercely poetic study of violence. Stunningly shot in black-and-white. [14 Dec 1989, p.23]

    As LaMotta, Robert De Niro gives a blank, soulless performance; there's so little of depth or urgency coming from him that he's impossible to despise, or forgive, in any but the most superficial way.

    One of the all time greatest movies. I can't find a goddamn thing that's wrong with this. I'll say that this is better than "Goodfellas" or "Taxi Driver"… Expand

    I liked the beginning, but then it became soooo boring!! I bought the movie because I "heard" it was soooo great. What a waste!
