Excessive and self-indulgent, yes, but I still enjoyed it thoroughly. Can't remember the last time I laughed at the theater so much.

That being said, it could've been shorter by at least 45 minutes, thus packing a more crushing wallop.

Man, did this movie feel every bit of 3 hours long. The best thing was the McConaghey song over the end credits.

I just watched this last week for the first time. Jonah Hill killed it but otherwise, I found myself thinking that I'd seen this movie too many times before. Good Fellas and Casino both smoke it in my book.
