When Jake LaMotta steps into a boxing ring and obliterates his opponent, he's a prizefighter portrayed in this Martin Scorsese film by Robert De Niro. But when he treats his family and friends the same way, he's a ticking time bomb, ready to go off at any moment. Though LaMotta wants his family's love, something always seems to come between them. Perhaps it's his violent bouts of paranoia and jealousy. This kind of rage helped make him a champ, but in real life, he winds up in the ring alone... (imdb)

My favorite Scorsese picture. It manages an excellent balance between gritty realism and profound elegance. The black and white photography is stunning, and the fight scenes are among the most exciting and beautiful sequences I've ever seen. Furthermore, LaMotta is Scorsese's and DeNiro's most beautifully realized character: brutal, paranoid, often quite awful, yet tragic and all too human. I also really like Pesci as the flawed yet sympathetic brother.

Cinema's most poetic portrayal of man as self-mythologizing beast, a virtuoso blend of docu-realistic drama and heightened expressionism. Raging Bull is nostalgic, but it's the nostalgia of a deeply flawed man, full of loathing and self-hatred, for whom the past is as much full of regret as the future is of uncertainty, with only the pain he gives, and suffers, in the ring to remind him he's alive in the present.

A great, great movie with strong catholic undertones. LaMotta is the embodiment of all seven sins and there is no one to stand in his way or say no to him. He therefore has rare moments whereof he achieves redemption through masochistic self-torment. Raging Bull is perfectly paced and portioned despite its long running time, owing nearly as much to Thelma Schoonmaker's brilliant editing as to Scorsese. LaMotta is probably the role of De Niro's lifetime.

One of two B&W 1980 Best Picture Nominees where the guy says "I am not an animal!" - Celebrity Deathmatch missed the opportunity to do Raging Bull vs. Elephant Man. Scorsese depicts a raw catholicism, sin and atonement in brutal measure. Hellish smoke encloses the ring, a brother's keeper in the corner. As LaMotta lets himself be crucified on the ropes so does DeNiro punish his own body for the people, adding twice the weight Morgan Spurlock gained in Supersize Me just for a handful of scenes.

Raging Bull is a technically excellent film - cinematography, acting, pacing, all that jazz. Other reviewers can laud it better than I. But here's another reason I couldn't be a critic: I can't like a movie simply for how well-done it is. Like other Scorsese films, it shows ugliness and brutality oh so well, but I find no purpose in it. I watch movies for fun, to admire or sympathize with characters, or else to learn or be enriched in some other way. Raging Bull gave me none of that.

Arguably Scrosese's best film, a truly mesmerizing docudrama. The black and white photography contributes a lot to this feeling, and DeNiro's performance is nothing short of hypnotizing and amazing, perhaps my favorite performance ever. This is not a feel good movie, but when the end credits roll and Mascagni's score is heard in the background, you know you've just witnessed something special.

This could quite possibly be De Niro's best performance. Raging Bull contains a wide variety of emotions, and De Niro presents them with the utmost excellence. The life of Jake LaMotta was definitely one to be put to the screen, but Scorsese made it legendary. Scorsese's Direction is fantastic, it didn't seem rushed, and how Scorsese captured all the goings on of LaMotta, and the long time span it takes place in was handled in a way that only Scorsese could. Magnificent!

Like a spectator at a zoo watching a tiger roam around a cage, we are offered a glimpse of the beast's brutal grace from an assuredly safe distance. But the barrier is broken in the final act by Deniro's savagely sympathetic performance that reveals the full extent of Scorsese-Schrader's humanism: Lamotta's self destruction is given a painfully human, and therefore troubling, dimension, and that is the real source of the film's devastating emotional power. Classic

I couldn't find much humanity in Jake. He seemed artificial. Consequently, I felt pretty detached throughout, even moreso during the poorly choreographed fights (Scorsese brilliantly captured several moments in the fights, though, and each fight is shot differently, so props for that). Joey, magnificently played by Pesci, is a much more interesting character. I understand the paranoia, jealousy, pride, self-destructive behaviours... but it did not resonate deeply. Good film but disappointing.

The opening shot of La Motta dancing around the smoky ring throwing punches in the air as if at an invisible opponent while Mascagni's intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana plays sets the tone for a beautifully done classic personal rise and fall plot.

An extraordinary central performance by De Niro (almost matched by Pesci and Moriarty in support) help liven curiously uninvolving drama, despite cinematic master Scorsese behind the camera, and Schoonmaker's legendary, exciting boxing scenes. Perhaps the biggest problem is that Jake LaMotta is simply not a sympathetic or relatable character, and its difficult to discern any overarching value or "moral" from his story. Technical merits are undeniable, but final impact rings hollow.

My favorite performance by De Niro. He makes character of the hardheaded boxer, who goes through ups and downs of life look real and very memoriable. Also might be a favorite movie Scorsese directed, or maybe a tie with Taxi Driver. After credits ended i was sitting in a dark for a few minutes, thinking about life. I think thats relevant describing how powerful movie is. I will definately watch it again at some point in the future.

Fortunately, some times great acting can allow one to realize the limits of their empathy - 'Raging Bull' offers what few others do in that regard. The slow motion, the sound, the cutting vibrations - It's all ingenuity, as the images are immediately embedded; available to the recollection almost as conveniently as one's own. Whether its pool-side at the Bronx, live at the Garden, or dinner at the Copa - Every set is engaging and impressively accessible. I am in awe of this masterpiece.

Scorsese abstains from the nostalgic conventions of historical biography, instead writes another chapter in his preoccupation with Italian-American identity and Catholic self-reckoning. Religious iconography looms over the film, LaMotta's savagery in and out of the ring the embodiment of mortal sin, and he receives comeuppance in spectacular fashion. The black-and-white is almost hyperreal, the boxing sequences are crunchy and ultraviolent, and De Niro's physical transformation is remarkable.

This movie is brutal. In the best way possible though. Scorsese and Schrader team up again here to take an absolutely unflinching look at boxer Jake LaMotta.

a boxer is an asshole, and his brother is a different type of asshole. it felt more like american independent cinema than i expected, though i suppose this *is* a fairly early scorsese. at first i felt the drama had some filler, but as it gets more intense, the importance of it increases, exploring the singular quality that causes his ascendancy in sport as well as his descendancy in social life until it reaches a breaking point, at which point the downward spiral consumes everything.

A classic with a showstopping performance by Robert De Niro in arguably his best role (though I prefer him in Taxi Driver). Brutal boxing scenes combined with an overall brutal person who is out to prove himself not just to others but to himself. In the end it's also about what drives men's insecurity and what causes them to hurt the ones they love.

De Niro is a caged animal, tethered to the ring. His only real release for the primal, emotional life he is trapped to live. He staunches around his flat, can't fit in with the civilized world, see's people as their inner-beasts rather than whatever flesh is covering them. anyone is a threat in the territorial food chain from opponent to brother. If you don't believe it Jo Pesci follows the bloodline by utilizing a car door. I wonder what Brando would have done in this role.

Overrated b/c Scorsese, as usual, lets some scenes go on 4 too long (the champagne glass tower? LaMotta's life has become 1 of excess- we get it), & some scenes r so over-the-top (only Rocky is this amenable 2 being punched in the face) it's easy 2 c why they've been parodied so much. Still it's great b/c Scorsese makes it all plausible; everyone's at the top of their game & most importantly, knowing the bomb is going 2 blow, but not when, is infinitely more riveting than the explosion itself

Some scenes in this movie are simply mezmerizing, mostly due to Robert De Niro's fantastic potrayal of hot-headed fighter Jake LaMotta. I do, however, also feel that the movie is slightly overrated and certainly not Scorsese's best, though some people claim it is. The film dragged in some places, especially towards the end and the ending itself is without any sort of summary or morale which I felt it could have needed. Basically this movie is what it is because of De Niro's fantastic performance

Like his role in "Taxi Driver", Robert De Niro brilliantly portrays a completely unsympathetic character. "Raging Bull" is often unpleasant, but always engrossing. It makes you hate Jake La Motta, but want to learn more about him. it's one of the greatest train wrecks in American cinema: too terrible to look at, but too mesmerizing to look away from.

Mistakes - 1) During a scene where the boxer is in his home, you hear an ambulance siren from his window. The siren is a modern siren rather than the slow low to loud sound then back from loud to low type when the movie was dated. 2) When Joe Pesci has to apologize and shake hands with the guy he got into a fight with, there is one shot of him shaking hands. The very next shot - with no transition whatsoever - shows Joe Pesci holding/playing with what appears to be a matchbook.

Nice performance by De Niro indeed but other that.. Meh.. Plot is filled with holes. I don't get how he wins the championship or why he loses it. How his wife bears with him for 11 years or why she decides to leave after all. How he became a boxer or how he became a showman. All I see is a 2 years later sub followed by one box fight and one irrational jealousy fight, then another 2 years later sub.

The boxing scenes were amazing. Some of the best direction and cinematography I have ever seen. They made me sick, they made me cheer, they were perfection. The scenes that took place outside the boxing ring were kind of hard for me to watch. I absolutely hated Jake LaMotta and rarely felt sympathetic towards him. He was his own worst enemy because of the way he treated people that loved him. No other actor could have made me feel this way towards a character in a movie. Deniro was amazing.

Awesome movie. De Niro is truly amazing, but so is the too often overlooked Peschi.

Martin Scorsese definitely has a vibe about his movies because there was something in this movie that utterly made me think of Goodfellas (poor, angry, new york people), but that's neither here nor there. This is a superb film with a stunning performance from DeNiro as a completely unstable and ultimately unloved character. Exceptional black and white cinematography really brings this old New York to life. This is a must-see movie.

Okay, this film is practically too good to be true. Goddamn. I almost cannot even watch the scene of Robert De Niro in the jail cell anymore. It hits my emotional peak. It's really dificult to argue with someone when they say that this is the best film from the 1980s.

It's fitting that this film references On the Waterfront, as this is everything that movie strived to be and failed. Possibly the quintessential "American" film, and the swan song of New Hollywood before any sense of artistry was buried under the rubble of blockbusters and sequels. To apply a hamfisted metaphor, LaMotta is the director and Robinson the studio -- beaten mercilessly time and again, yet never falling down. One of the best films ever made.

This film is genius on all levels, from the acting to the directing, even down to the little things like how the fights scenes themselves were choreographed and staged. All in all, Raging Bull shows that a movie can be crafted just like other works of art, because Scorsese really pays attention to detail to make a beautiful final project.

While watching this I came to the conclusion that you need a lot more will power than I have to appreciate this movie. It's like a purposefully dirty penny--it's shiny underneath. It must have been Scorsese's doing, but you need to squint really hard to see anything special in this movie, it's not that everyone involved isn't capable, but they seem to be trying pretty hard to hide it.

A lunkhead of a movie about an apparent lunkhead of a man, former middleweight boxing champion La Motta. Despite a number of Expressionistic and lyrical outbursts, a dull-minded realism rules this movie.

Scorsese's finest hour. A biopic about LaMotta's life in and out of the ring: a "ragging bull" demolishing everything within the ring, however, in the end, his enraged temperament leads to estrangement from both friends and family alike. Filmed in black-and-white with stunning cinematography by Michael Chapman. De Niro portrayal of LaMotta is poignant and heartfelt. The final effigy of LaMotta, represents the disgust and detest the audience has felt for him throughout the entire film.

The movie Scorcese should've won on Oscar for. So good in fact, they gave it to him for a film he did 25 years later. DeNiro is great.
