i saw The Untouchables for the first time last night and was also disappointed at the little time on screen De Niro got! i agree it's a great movie, but in no way is it a classic, IMHO (at least from my first viewing of it). on the opening credits, on seeing Enio Morricone was the music composer, i was expecting a great, suspenseful score, but in fact it was more like a Disney soundtrack IMO! the movie was like a fantasy movie and, due to my recent fascination with Goodfellas and Casino etc, thought it was a bit far-fetched. anybody else agree?
