    A rather easy to watch 3 hours that definitely feels like Scorsese at his "safest". A good time that's often engaging in its storytelling but nothing more bold than just a biopic about an interesting guy.

    I've watched enough Adam Sandler movies at this point to realize that somehow, despite being a comedian, he doesn't know how to write a proper joke with any sort of setup. Random cut aways to Rhinos having sex and one liners about characters that only exist for the one liners themselves are not jokes. On top of that, half the cast here couldn't act to save their lives, Drew Barrymore included.

    Buddy got breakfast in bed every morning and still tried to leave. Some people just don't appreciate a good thing when they have it

    Probably the most accurate depiction of loneliness and fragile toxic masculinity ever put to screen. I'm glad I don't think this way anymore but it's unfortunate how many men still seem to think the way Travis Bickle does and just goes to show how engrained this issue is with men. Combine the timeless themes with a perfect sense of 1970s New York nightlife and a soundtrack that sounds like a ticking time bomb, much in the same way our protagonist is, and you have one of the greatest most carefully filmed movies of the 1970s.
