Contains sequences which are among the greatest achievements in the history of cinema. I find this film difficult to watch, because I do not like many of the characters, but they are not meant to be liked. The film does not judge them. It simply observes them. When Scorsese is at his best, he doesn't just get into a character's head, he exposes their soul.

One of my favorite films. I've seen it countless times but seeing on the big screen on print was like seeing it for the first time.

A big wow on how a protagonist developed a character throughout the film.

O filme acompanha a história de 2 (ou 3, 4, 5...) dementes no mundo do boxe. Não meu tipo de filme. Assim como não suporto filme de mulherzinha, um que exala pura testosterona também não me agrada. O filme possui dois tipos de personagem: homem estúpido / mulher objeto. Que se dane a cinematografia, vá a merda a técnica, fuck filme preto e branco. Ofendido com a linguagem? É assim que eles falam do início ao fim.

Robert DeNiro's performance was great, an awesome score, and all-around great filmmaking. Martin Scorsese really made it seem like it took place in the 40's.

Me gusto mucho el mood de esta película, muy al estilo 50s. Creo que hicieron un gran trabajo con el arte y la relación de Jake y Joey es muy intensa, cargan todo el peso de la película en sus hombros. No soy fanático del cine de Scorsese, pero creo que esta es su mejor película.

Still holds up on second viewing. A brutal, haunting masterpiece. Scorsese's best.

Triste film avec un triste héros. J'aime bien retrouver DeNiro-Pesci dans des rôles différents (boxeur/manager au lieu d'associés truands), mais les constructions des personnages restent les mêmes, les émotions prennent le dessus, tout ça. Le petit moment de fureur de Joe Pesci est un bijou de violence.

Raging Bull is the other side of Rocky; it's a cold, unflinching look at the violence both inside and outside of the ring. Scorsese doesn't back away from showing us the ugly underside of boxing.

Emotional violence and physical violence take place both on the inside and outside of the ring. Call it hypnotic, call it frustrating, call it harsh, but Raging Bull is a work of beauty and discipline. Scorsese uses the camera like a paint brush, creating seemingly effortless compositions and adjusting frame rates so subtly that one can only see those 120 fps as LaMotta's point of view. Judge not, lest ye be judged.

Although I waver, probably Scorsese's greatest, most complex and endlessly beautiful film.

Masterpiece. DeNiro took method to another level with this transformative oscar winning performance. The black and white cinematography by Chapman was pristine as were the editing choices by Schoonmaker. Supporting cast was aces especially Pesci and Moriarty (who never worked at this level again). The fact that Ordinary People took picture and director that year is a travesty.

De Niro put on all that weight then lost it all again. that's dedication. and lot's of pizza

The scene with DeNiro alone in his cell has to be one of the most powerful and moving things ever put on celluloid. Masterful in every way.

Scorsese's classic only gets better each time you see it. http://eddieonfilm.blogspot.com/2009/12/thing-aint-ring-its-playso-give-him.html

one of the most painful to watch masterpieces of American cinema, that it is ultimately riveting and unforgettable is a testament to Scorsese and his cast's talent

I'm so sad that this movie was so disappointing. Great acting from De Niro, just as "they" say, but everything else is just average. I hated the fight scenes, so unreal! And it didn't rase any emotions, I wasn't sucked in Jake's character and in the end I just couldn't feel the collapse Scorsese was trying to build on.
