Review: : Robert De Niro (Awakenings, Godfather II, Taxi Driver, Deer Hunter) started the movie weighing 150 pounds and by the end he weighed 212 pounds. He brought Jake La Motta to life, the talented boxer and the wasted middle aged loser. Jake La Motta's jealousy causes him to lose both his wife and his brother. It's yet but another beauty directed by Scorsese. -Review by Mark Caldwell

Review: Raging Bull is a dark look at the life of middleweight boxing champion Jake LaMotta and is considered by many critics to be the best film of the 1980's. The film contains excellent performances from Robert De Niro (Jake) and Joe Pesci (Joey). We feel the fury in Jake as he struggles to come to terms with himself. The fight sequences are brilliant, often shot from LaMotta's point of view, with slow motion and various camera tricks. De Niro (The Deer Hunter, Awakenings, Taxi Driver, Godfather II) put on nearly fifty pounds in order to better play the older, heavyset La Motta. It is the passion that De Niro brings to the role that leaves a lasting impression. The film was nominated for Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor (Pesci) and Actress (Moriarty), as well as Director (Martin Scorsese) and Cinematography (Michael Chapman). Raging Bull is a refreshing and honest piece of American cinema. -Review by Aaron Caldwell
