Why so much hype?

Perfect cast and a good story

Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

The roles fit the actors very well. The ending was so surprising and unexpected. The physical appearance of the actors is more than enough to convince you that they fit the roles. The storyline is new and changed the movie industry in a magnificent way. Even though this movie is old but in my opinion it's still one the best movies ever made and deserves to be in the top 10 best movies and will always be remembered by it's story and actors and specially the amazing photography

This film is an awakening! The film boast excellent character development but you must pay attention to understand! If you are watching the fights; you are watching for the wrong reason!

If you only got to watch one movie from the 90s, I'd have to tie between this fantastic title and Pulp Fiction. This unique take on consumerism and film-making/story-telling as a whole leaves you thinking for days after.

Telling the tale of a broken man in a unique way. Diving deep into the shattered psyche of the main character the audience is presented a tale of love, loss, and showing how the mind copes. Truly a masterpiece of story telling and a must see.
