obviously, you're more enamored of celebrity than I.
I have no problems with the seemy side of life as long as the director doesn't get in there and wallow in it. Scorscese's characters are often evil without ANY redeeming sides; now, that's not terrible in itself unless it's a habit and there is no other character to lighten the black.
Casino is unwatchable: the constant barrage of narration makes the film unnecessary and redundant. Kundun is just...boring as hell. Watery Kurosawa, if you will.
Aviator? One more pop of those flashbulbs and I was going to leave. Sure, Leonard did alright: he's a decent enough actor. But Jim Carrey could have done it, too. The point is that good movies do more than just cast "ok" actors, they pick the best for the role. I can only imagine what a great actor like Benicio would have done with it.
