WAS TOTALLY WORTH THE WAIT FOR ME....
....and I spent money a couple more times,just to take in the magnificent acting and artful direction.Now as to the twist...(not a spoiler).Unfortunately,someone ruined it for me on this website,so I can't say I was surprised.However,Scorsese did allow too many "tells" right from the beginning off of the boat,so if you are fairly smart about psych thrillers,you will realize,at least in part, some of what is happening. REGARDLESS, it is a masterful transition from book to film (bought the book right after first look).Scorsese's direction showed clear through and it also had an embraceable Hitchcockesque feel.The acting-wow,not only Leo's,but the 3 female leads and Sir Kingsly (very sinister-yet caring) had me relating to each and every character. Ruffalo,,I am usually a fan,but here I think he was at halfmast.Mesmerizing visually and a great score. Make sure,after the story is out,you keep paying attention til the last shot. GO;MONEY WELL SPENT.
