A Well-Done Film

Well-done in every respect, "Raging Bull" nevertheless made me feel somewhat ambivalent about its content. As a depiction of real life boxer Jake Le Motta (amazingly portrayed by Robert De Niro)'s degeneration from a rage-filled fighter to a fat, unkempt slob of a man, the movie can be forgiven for not giving us a warm and fuzzy reiteration of the events.

However, the characters ... read more

Raging Bull is definitely one of the most serious, aggressive and violent films of all time. The title says it all. It is a real life story about a famous boxer and his downfall. Raging Bull is a sport film that I personally think is a perfect sport film because Raging Bull is a story full of ups and downs. Raging Bull shows the very aggressive side because of the way Jake LaMotta really was when ... read more

I'm rather amazed that this is only the 2nd review for this movie (for example, Twilight has 26 reviews...). It is such a classic... Anyway, when I was younger 'Goodfellas' was definitely my favorite Scorsese feature but, nowadays, it is a toss up between this flick and 'Taxi Driver' and it is easily one of the best movies produced by De Niro and Scorsese. Basically, it is just really a really spe... read more

Based on the life and career of boxer Jake LaMotta, Raging Bull focuses on Jake's rage and violence that makes him virtually unstoppable in the ring. The same anger also drives Jake to beat his wife and his brother Joey, and sends Jake down a self-destructive spiral of paranoia and rage.

" Scorsese, De Niro and Pesci, a combo that's unstoppable. You know it's a good year when a Scorsese film is ranked 4th."

50 Moments of Cinematic Wonder (50 movies items)

"RAGING BULL - BOXING AS BALLET Given that it is generally accepted to be the finest boxing film ever made and perhaps even the greatest sport-themed film, it may come as a surprise to discover that Martin Scorsese, the director of the glorious 'Raging Bull', is a fan of neither sports or boxing. The latter in particular is something that Scorsese felt disgust for. When attending a boxing match for research purposes, on seeing the blood sponge for the first time he declared "And they call this a"

“Nice to revisit. The force is not on the ring, bur outside, in the realtionship, luminous and ludicrous, with Kathy. The selfpunishment of throwing ice on his parts to avoid sex with her, is as elocuent as boxing against the wall.” read more
