I wish I hadn't watched this. I kept on because I just hoped it could deliver if I persevered but it just didn't bring out the light in contrast to the dark enough. Pessimistic and very nearly totally unrelentingly dark sided. It would have been great to have some more sincere characters to contrast with the downfall of the cynical protagonist.

This will be a review of the film and not the extras on this two disc edition which are frankly disappointing.Also,if this was a review about the DVD casing it would probably get one star.Flimsy,made of cardboard and mine already has a tear in it!

This is an amazing film, with very high acting skill from Day Lewis. The acting skill of this is just under a Robert De Niro performance, I compare every actor to De Niro as he is the greatest actor of all time!
Daniel gets a 5 out of 5 for his acting, but the story of this film is not great, that is why for me it hits a 3 out of 5.
