Went to see this movie in the Grand on Tuesday night. Thought it was an excellent movie and a great story, 3 excellent perfomances from Dicaprio, Damon, and Nicholson. It's a hard hitting and sometimes brutal movie on organised crime in the South Boston area. I give it 4 out of 5, as Im not sure if I liked the ending. Well worth a watching

I have a new found respect for Leonardo DiCaprio after watching this movie. I thought this was by far the best movie i've seen this year. Mark Wahlberg was great as usual too.

Saw it, used to live in that area, recognized lots of places, although much was shot in NYC.
Loved the dialogue, although it's not for the faint of heart... If the f-word offends, might want to see something else. Still, there were lots of laugh-out-loud funny lines, in a male-dominated environment kinda way. Anyone who has been in a similar environment will find them familiar, though we aren't usually that clever.
Yes, the ending was not what we wished, and yes, DiCaprio can really act!
