Raging Bull (1980)

  • Scorsese, Martin
  • 1980, Martin Scorsese, USA
  • 6 Comments

One of Scorsese’s greatest accomplishments—an astonishing character study of the rise and fall of a world champion middleweight boxer that is also an acting and editing masterclass.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 5 out of 5.

Casino (1995)

  • Scorsese, Martin
  • 1995, Martin Scorsese, USA
  • 6 Comments

Scorsese’s underappreciated 3-hour crime epic, about a high-end Las Vegas casino being run by an organised crime syndicate, is one of his most riveting films.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.

Kundun (1997)

  • Scorsese, Martin
  • 1997, Martin Scorsese, USA
  • 2 Comments

Stunning contributions by cinematographer Roger Deakins and composer Philip Glass aside, Scorsese’s religious biopic about the 14th Dalai Lama sometimes feels inert and uninspired from a narrative point-of-view. 

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.

Scorsese delivers another career-high mob film that is quite unlike what he has done before in what could be a strong Best Picture contender.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.

Silence (2016)

  • Scorsese, Martin
  • 2016, Martin Scorsese, USA
  • 2 Comments

The film operates with an ambitious canvas, unfolding with stately elegance, but it is Scorsese’s existential dissection of Christian theology that lends it its thought-provoking, even compassionate, power.

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4 out of 5.

Wolf of Wall Street, The (2013)

  • Scorsese, Martin
  • 2013, Martin Scorsese, USA
  • 2 Comments

Scorsese redefines himself for the modern age with this intense, energetic and debaucherous crime-comedy that sees Leonardo DiCaprio giving possibly his greatest performance to date.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.

Scorsese’s brilliant love letter to the film lover, and the finest use of 3D technology since ‘Avatar’.

Slick editing and camerawork aside, this is the music documentary-cum-concert film par excellence by the great Martin Scorsese.

Aviator, The (2004)

  • Scorsese, Martin
  • 2004, Martin Scorsese, USA

It might run a little too long and may not always compel, but Scorsese’s biopic features an excellent performance by DiCaprio and a stunning level of period detail.

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.
