Customer Reviews
When I first saw this film in New York shortly after it was issued. I was going through a bad time to lose close friends, very heartbroken, drunk and sleep deprived - to lose a sense of control and emotional, "the sea" somewhere between stunned and with a nervous breakdown.
This film and "Fight Club" me through it every week on a $ 3.00 discount theater on 50th Street, where I saw "All the Way" a few times. As such, I can not entirely objectiveon it, but I think the film is one of Scorsese's best - certainly one of the most honest and sincere, even if blackly, funny film.
I admit, in love with New York City and the film captures so much of it in a way that is dark and romantic grittily realistic.
And although it was blamed during his career (and rightly so, often times) "BOTD" Nicholas Cage's performance is sincere because "Raising Arizona". I guess itdifficult to look to trade someone "crazy" and do so in a credible, but when I saw the film I was on the same page and called her right to benefits.
The film is too much for the average public and the audience wild humor and forecast scenarios are unlikely to identify with wild Cage character, both for "all" and relatively straightlaced. If you have not seen and were not laughing scanning lame like the devil on the road for the ambulance thenobviously you have missed the film tries to joke and is the most shining attribute, and has not been done for you.
Similarly, if you see something wrong in the Cage baseball bat to the windshield of the car when it happened since the film is simply on another level of reality for you. Watching Cage smash, it was very cathartic for me peices time and probably saved me from being picked up by the NYPD at 3:30 many nights for similar actions, I wanted to commit 'sTime.
And yet, if you have not reached the final film as Cage natural deep sleep at last in the arms of a girl who just knew troubled, but went through hell then do not sympathize with the film for you. I have seldom seen a perfect and completely satisfying end. The end of "Where the Wild always tasks" by Spike Jonze, I remember her clearly. Hope and peace can sleep in the arms of a sweet woman is the best men in their daily torment.
"BOTD" 's resolution for me is the modern version of the classic Hollywood romantic happy ending.
Fans of "Fight Club" should definitley check it out, especially when measured with a portrait of someone losing everything Edward Norton and "slip" with him.
I doubt that anyone involved in excessive self-destructive behaviors and watching their lives fall apart the time to read reviews from Amazon and purchase out-of-print to find decades-old film, but aFavor and buy a present for the film. Can provide the perspective needed to respect and even humor them to pass, as it did for me.
Thanks, Martin and Nicholas.
