One Of The Ten Greatest Films Ever Made

This isn't an overreaction. I've seen a lot of films but the storytelling in this Dennis Lehane novel turned Clint Eastwood film is off the charts. Yes rating films are completely subjective and there are no stats (outside of box office numbers) to indicate how good/popular/respected/anticipated a film is but this one is right up there with the greatest films ever.

And it amazes me how many people haven't seen this film. I recommend it to all my family & friends and they love it. The most underrated film EVER.

I am sorry but I find my favourite film, The Darjeeling Limited, the most underrated one.

Not sure it is one of the ten greatest, but it is undeniably unforgettable. A towering, shattering experience, and WAY up there.

I couldn't agree more. The first time that I saw it was three years ago and to this day I still realize things about it.

I am completely on board it's one of my favorites film ever. The acting as a whole is some of the best in the business. As far as being underrated hard to say it is nominated for best picture and two oscars wins for penn and Robbins

The most over hyped movie in cinema history.

Actually i would like to put this one in the list of most OVERRATED movies of all time along with Clint Eastwood as one of the most overhyped directors

Just Clint. Now let's start counting films from other great directors.

On 2nd thought, let us not bother. You're just delusional.
