Once upon a Time in America
I picked this up used for $8 last week, but I can't seem to talk anyone else into watching it with me because it is damn near 4 hours long. I'm sure Deniro is stellar (I haven't seen a movie yet where he wasn't) but is it worth watching by myself?

Definitely worth watching right through till the ending. I don't want to spoil anything so I won't say any more.
If you have to, maybe split it up into 2 hour blocks or take an "intermission".

Watching a movie by myself just isn't the same. I like to share the emotional experience with other people, and have someone to discuss it with immediately afterward. Especially with movies i've seen before, I like to see how other people react when they see a memorable scene for the first time.

If you feel the need to discuss it you always have this forum. Where's the love, dog? Where's the love?
Anyone who isn't confused really doesn't understand the situation. - Edward R. Murrow
