325047, For what it is, it's great. But not great by conventional standards. Posted by Frank Longo, Tue Oct-23-07 04:10 PM
It's an exercise in excess, excessive violence, big flashy cinematography, larger-than-life character acting.
I doubt that would have been as good a movie if they'd tried to make it conventionally great. Playing to the excessive style is what has made it last.
