Mann’s first film. Frank is the best character Mann has created and the scene in the diner is better than the one in Heat. |

The Wolf of Long Island celebrates a craven criminal: a coke snorting, lude popping, reverse Robin Hood. What’s that? The biopic about the demented Jordan Belfort is titled The Wolf of Wall Street. Really? He spent scant time there. Belfort and his entire operation are Long Islanders dow…

Robert DeNiro is great as Bernie Madoff, the famous financial bad-man who pulled off a $64.8B Ponzi scheme from 1960 to 2008. The movie, a little slow at times, does a decent job portraying what life as a Madoff was like, and the extent to which Bernie ruined the lives of not only investors, but… |

MY NUMBER THREE!!! First off, Matt Damon at his best. Long before the Bourne movies, Matt was already star. This movie is so complex, and so original. I find myself wondering what it would be like to have be in the situation that Tom Ripley was forced into. Matt Damon, Jude Law, Philip Seym… |

Perfection: The opening music sets a movielover’s heart aflutter and The Sting just gets better from there. A Scott Joplin rag – brilliantly slowed down by Marvin Hamlisch – leads to Robert Redford and Paul Newman, reunited a mere four years after they first got together in "Butch Cassidy and t…
