Arguably Scorsese's most underrated film. Some of the blackest comedy I've ever seen, really really hilarious at times. Voice over wasn't that hot all the time and Goodman was clearly inferior to the other guys Cage worked with (Rhames, Sizemore) but those are really my only complaints. Soundtrack is amazing and I loved how the cinematography paralleled Cage's mood. Cage is in his Leaving Las Vegas mode, which is great, and who doesn't love Patricia Arquette?

Great film! I felt like I was watching the New York EMS version of "Catch 22". Cage, his fellow paramedics, and the hospital staff seemed trapped in a dystopian world where natural order is broken down to a point of no return. Some truly great cinematography is evident here, it really brings the madness to life.

Another damn good Scorsese film with the fun Nicolas Cage in the lead. Full of dark humour, eerie scenes and questionable characters, this is both bleak and humourous at different times. Something is a little off in the film that doesn't bring it up to the standards of other Scorsese films, and I have a feeling it's because the narrative isn't as tight as in others and the Cage sort of drifts around, though I'm sure that's intentional it's still odd to watch. Awesome film, highly recommended.

Nightmarish ambulances rush through the graveyard shift of the revolting city decaying within Cage's mind. He's haunted by ghosts. He's working in madness. He can't quit. We can't look away. We have the perfect soundtrack. The perfect camera work. The perfect actor and director. Genius at its darkest core.

I think this film is underrated. Scorsese returns to the Taxi Driver streets, in an ambulance, and discovers menace once more, searching for its meaning in his Catholic heritage.

There were some pretty hilarious bits in it. I thought the idea was great at the beginning, but wore off later on. Was a bit too long for my taste

Decent enough thriller directed by Scorcese. Not really one of his best works--mainly because Nicholas Cage is truly miscast here. I would watch at your own risk.

An amazing movie and without a doubt one of Scorsese's best.

You know, a few months ago I hated Nicholas Cage. Who could blame me? I'd only ever seen his hollywood action flicks, and the biggest compliment I could give him was that he's extremely good at acting like John Travolta. Now, however, I am enlightened. With the right man at the helm, Cage can deliver some sensational performances. He's backed by a solid soundtrack, some seeringly quick and beautifully shot driving scenes, and exceptional writing full of sarcastic wit and real emotion. Brilliant.

A slog. Cage is dreadful and the other three ambulance drivers are all hamming it up as well, half of the humour falls flat on its face whilst the other half is just outright annoying and disruptive, the surreal edge of the film doesn't convince even the tiniest bit as much as in Scorsese's superb After Hours but instead just comes of has hokey and silly, and the images and music choices are both just all so garish. Who thought that soundtrack would be a good idea?

he sees dead people

Forgettable.

too sloppy
