I don't think it deserved an oscar for special effects, though. And I think it would have worked better as a TV show.
In other news, I really have to say that Leonardo DiCaprio is becoming one of my favorite actors. Ever since Gangs of New York he keeps putting out awesome movies. I'd like to see him in some Harrison Ford action roles as he gets older.

I really learned to hate him during the Titanic period, just because I got so sick of hearing about the movie and him. Until I read or saw (don't remember) an interview he gave where he basically said he was just horrified by all the attention he got and certainly more sick of it that I was. Said he couldn't even go out and get a gallon of milk from a convenience store without getting swarmed. That must really suck.
After that, I developed a new appreciation for him, and he really is an exceptional actor. My favorite of his movies is The Aviator (Kate Beckinsale as Ava Gardner - DAMN
). Gangs of New York was very good, although the choppy camera style in the fight scenes sucked. And for those who haven't seen it, What's Eating Gilbert Grape is a very strange, but excellent movie featuring a very young Johnny Depp and an even younger DiCaprio, who did a fantastic job portraying an autistic child.
