That was an excellent one.

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Where do I start? This review is for the 229 minutes Director's Cut that I saw once last year on the Internet.
I must say that there is too much praising of a worthless movie that I myself find nothing to like about at all. All the nudity and rape scenes are enough for me to want to grab the DVDs all across the world and throw it in garbage bins. When that is said, I can only imagine how much worse the actual movie is (I believe I read that it's 6 hours and 30 minutes long).
Seriously, this is the worst movie I've ever seen, even worse than the Saw-movies, because the Saw-movies were at least a little bit of thrilling. This on the other hand is nothing of value!
And I know that people think that I'm not being serious about this. I am serious.
If it's true that Sergio Leone spent 10 years to make this trash, then that makes me sick to my stomach.
The only reasons to why people like it are, A: They are Robert De Niro-fanatics, B: They are addicted to porn and violence and C: They are delusional and not true to themselves. Stay away at all costs!

This film is terribly boring and overrated. When they say boring they are talking about this. It is so bad I rather watch the reboot of Ghostbusters again over this (OK kidding between these two films I rather pluck my eyes out). It has a small interlude with a pig banging a teenage slut and some teen action elsewhere but that is not enough to redeem this super too long borefest.

"Once upon a time in America" is the biggest film in the history of cinema.

This movie is huge. I've seen the massive 229 min cut. And surprisingly it did not feel that boring! The pace was slow but for this story it was absolutely necessary. Otherwise the story wouldn't fell the way it felt. I was tired but also satisfied when this ended.The acting was fitting. The child actors did an amazing job. In some cases I think even better than their adult counterparts.One might get confused at the way this movie is shown. The constant switching between present time and the past might seem weird but its a massive buildup for the last segment. Once a person sees it all, he/she would understand why it was shown that way and would for sure appreciate the making.The long shots and the enthralling musical score that shows and makes sure channels all the emotions into the viewers was expected from Sergio Leone. I always enjoyed his work and this didn't underperformed at all. It's sad that this was his last movie.This was an epic tale and one of the best crime dramas I've seen so far. Too bad that it was a commercial mess due to a trimmed version being released in theater. I would recommend the whole 229 min version to anyone anytime.
