Movie Reviews of Once Upon a Time in America (Two-Disc Special Edition)

Movie Review: Once Upon A Time In America
Summary: 1 Stars

I enjoyed this film when I viewed it on a non cable channel and enjoyed it. But when I bought it I was shocked at how disgusting and perverted it is. There are all kinds of sex acts going on between minors, and teenage prostitutes, it is just terribly disgusting. There are numerous scenes of full frontal nudity many scenes of rape with nudity and unusual positions (if you know what I mean) during the scenes, it is disgusting. I am a huge fan of Robert De Niro I own The Godfather Part II, Raging Bull, The King of Comedy, The Deer Hunter, GoodFellas, Casino, Analyze This, Analyze hat and Midnight Run. But this crossed the line between tasteful and disgusting, see it on television but do not dignify this perverse behavior. The only interesting part is the acting of Robert De Niro, Burt Young, and Joe Pesci.

Summary of Once Upon a Time in America (Two-Disc Special Edition)

This movie has a checkered history, having been chopped from its original 227-minute director's cut to 139 minutes for its U.S. release. This longer edition benefits from having the complete story (the short version has huge gaps) about turn-of-the-century Jewish immigrants in America finding their way into lives of crime, as told in flashback by an aging Jewish gangster named Noodles (Robert De Niro). On the other hand, it's almost four hours long, and this sometimes-indulgent Sergio Leone film is no Godfather. Still, it is notable for the contrast between Leone's elegiac take on the gangster film and his occasional explosive action, as well as for the mix of the stoic, inexpressive De Niro and the hyperactive James Woods as his lifelong friend and rival. --Marshall Fine

Robert De Niro and James Woods star in Sergio Leone's award winning epic about a ruthless criminal empire. The original director's version of a timeless movie masterpiece.
