A good movie

You may have noticed or not but I'm kind of obsessive when it concerns my movie watching so since I have seen (almost) everything starring DiCaprio, I really had to watch this flick. The interesting thing is that it is actually banned in the US and Canada which makes it rather intriguing. Even more intrigiung, is the fact that it was never really clear why both DiCaprio and Maguirre wanted to censor this flick so I wasn't sure what to expect (nudity? or simply a very bad and embarrassing feature?). To my surprise, I didn't notice anything shocking about it and I thought it was actually pretty good. Of course, it is nothing mind-blowing whatsoever but I did like the directing style, there was also a pretty good cast of upcoming actors (Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, Kevin Connolly, Heather McComb, Marissa Ribisi, Jeremy Sisto) and they all gave some decent performances. And the fact that it is a 'forbidden' picture makes it rather eerie to watch because you are checking every details, every piece of dialog just to finally understand why they were so afraid or pissed about. To conclude, I thought it was a pretty good watch and if you can get your hands on it (it should be pretty difficult for the US viewers though ...), it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like DiCaprio's work.
