"The movie is 168 minutes long, he said, and that is the right length, and that's why there won't be any director's cut--because this is the director's cut."

Pride, Unprejudiced

Reviews Ebert - "The movie is 168 minutes long, he said, and that is the right length, and that's why there won't be any director's cut--because this is the director's cut." Seitz - "This deeply cynical movie demands we acknowledge the manipulation of the poor by the rich and the self-interest that lies behind most supposedly noble political actions. It is exactly what we needed." Kevin Lally - "Gangs of New York is a mightily impressive recreation of a fascinating piece of history. This long-gestating project could bring a long-overdue Oscar to one of America’s most invaluable filmmakers." Sean Burns -"Daniel Day-Lewis scorches through the screen like an out-of-control flame thrower: his eyes squinted shut, spouting epic racist broadsides with a barely contained animalistic savagery running white-hot through every coiled gesture." Reiner - "If the look of a movie were enough to guarantee greatness, Gangs of New York would be a masterpiece." Honeycutt - "This 168-minute movie, reportedly cut down from a 195-minute version, never gets you inside the story so you understand how the characters feel about their deeds." Hoberman - "This movie was born to dominate the skyline, but it can't—it's overshadowed by its own aspirations." Denby - "In all, "Gangs" is an example of the fallacy of research: they got the hats and knives right, but the main lines of the story don't make much sense." Poland - "The release version doesn’t much care for the quiet. Every void seems to be screaming to be filled. And that’s a shame." Donegan -" In the past few days Weinstein, a corpulent, cigar-smoking New Yorker, has been portrayed to the American public as a cartoon version of a power-crazed movie mogul. It is an image that is not far from the truth." Wells - "Miramax and Scorsese had the superior work-print version in their hands 14 months ago."
