    This is how to make a movie

    Perhaps the most well done movie ever made.

    It's smart, well-paced, and jam-packed with great actors playing well-developed, extremely realistic characters.

    This gritty cop movie is unreal and nothing ads to that unreal factor more than the words "based on a true story". Are you kidding me? This is crazier than "Training Day" and this junk really happened?! No Way! The level of corruption is so outlandish that it reminds me of another unreal movie that was based on a true story, "Texas Chainsaw Masacre".

    Speaking of Chainsaw Masacre, just like they disect (pardon the pun) that horror masterpiece in film schools everywhere, they should use this movie to teach film students the arts of production, theory, and editing.

    Okay, time to bottom-line it. If I had to describe it in one sentance, it's everything that Oceans 11 failed to be.

    Excellent, Though Very Heavy

     by  TMapou

    This was an excellent movie, chock full of outstanding acting performances. From Leonardo DiCaprio, to Jack Nicholson, to Matt Damon, to Mark Wahlberg...the list goes on and on of actors who gave great performances in this movie. It was a very heavy movie, so it will not put a smile on your face, but it is so well done that you will certainly appreciate it, despite how depressing it is. So many complex characters, with multiple layers, and only such fine actors could've given the performances necessary for all those layers to shine through. I highly recommend this movie (though, not necessarily if you are already very depressed).

    It's good movie with Voilence

    I liked, but did not love, this movie. I thought it was really interesting, but, as you'd expect, it's a little strange. And, through no fault of the movie, it seemed to fall into that same genre that almost all critically acclaimed movies fall into - History of Violence But, overall, worth seeing.

    Awesome!

     by  The Crow Critic

    One of the greatest and most controversial endings you'll ever see. An amazing twist and a killer plot. Pay attention
