This was another fine performance from Leonardo DiCaprio. The movie was as good as any I've seen in the past few years. The cast was a large part of it, but the story line was well thought out and put together well. If one likes action movies without action for its own sake and a great plot, this movie is for you.
A very solid selection, but I'm getting sick of this 12 track hogwash. 16 tracks. That's what us loyal non-pirating cd grubbers deserve. For the other 4 tracks maybe they could have thrown on The Stone's "Gimme Shelter," Joe Cuba's "Bang Bang," and one of the NYPD Emerald Society & Donizetti numbers. Also, the order is all out of whack, and they should have taken a more chronological approach in the arrangement. But, as I said, a very solid selection nonetheless.
Side note: maybe "Gimme Shelter" came too quickly after Layer Cake, and that's why they left it off the CD. Two classic rock songs in two modern mob movies - coincidence, or piggybacking?
My fingernails smell funny.
