Martin Scorsese plays with the viewers mind the entire film and keeps you on the edge of your seat without a single dull scene. In my mind, that is a rare thing to find in most films.

Air I Breathe

I nearly didn’t watch this movie because of all the negative reviews people gave this film. It was recommended to me by Netflix, which is not always creditable. Needless to say my expectations were very low, which is probably the best way to go into a movie.
