this might be the bad scorsese film i have ever see . i have a feeling that because this might be one of his least accessible film to current audience and people just call it his most underrated . in fact and there a reason it isn not talk about much and because it be rubbish . here scorsese seem like he build up his reputation strongly enough so he can just put out any old tosh and audience will praise it to high heaven just because scorsese direct it . the directing be lazy and the plot at first glance seem interesting enough but scorsese do his best to bring it down and end up with a stretched and repetitive and sequence of encounter with various deadbeat and and lowlife loser and which we be apparently suppose to show some interest in . griffin dunne be just to waspy and bland for u to invest any time in care for his character . the film just doesn not stop attempt to prepare u for tension and excitement and building up these encounter and situation before result in a huge anti climax and more stretch out and aimless road to nowhere .
