Once Upon A Time In America delievers with beautiful cinematography, powerhouse acting, especially from Deniro, and powerful storytelling. Definitely somewhat a classic, I think it could be a bit better, but it is definitely quite good, and definitely a beautiful film experience, one that sweeps greatly with what it gives.

I felt a longing for life that passed me by. A sad movie to me. What does Noodles have Now? Also the back & forth in time is a little confusing. Overall , though, a Sergio Leone Masterpiece.
