I remember seeing a Scorsese quote saying he felt it was the movie of his in which De Niro performs best. It's also a great movie that stands out from Scorsese's typical style. When I was a "film buff" in high school (haha) it was my favorite movie by him next to the aviator or Alice doesn't live here anymore.

I put it in the same box as Match Point: a great watch, but also incredibly frustrating. I had to actively subdue my urge to yell at the screen in order to enjoy the movie.

I think by kleinbl00's standards, it doesn't fit the genre of satire, but I would wholely recommend it to people to watch outside of #movieclub
