While I personally was a little disappointed, the film really is a fantastic epic portraying friendship spanning over decades, and the undying love which they held for each other. Don't expect a film at which you can laugh like Goodfellas, as I think (Sergio) Leone has created perhaps the most chilling gangster flick you could ever see. And expect to be shocked by one of the (IMO) most distrbing rape scenes ever. My not liking it is strictly personal, not business; it's a cracking tale and I highly recommend it!
