    Looks more like Kundun & Last Temptations of Christ than Goodfellas/Wolf of Wall Street

    Like the cast a lot, some of my favorites, but not sure about this one, as religion has hard time selling itself when it's the primary plot line, as opposed to when it's hidden. Trailer did not grab me. If the mob can work it's way into this one I'm in.

    Is Andrew Garfield considered a big time actor now?

    Last Temptation Of Christ kicks ass.

    Yep. Strangely, The Amazing Spider-Man bombing might the best thing to happen to his career. He's in serious contention for an Oscar this year.

    I see this more like Apocalypse Now meets Black Robe. Liam is like the Kurtz figure, running some kind of demented cult with natives of a strange land, etc.
