I like this movie but I have always had one problem with it. De Niro's character seems to be disgusted with the world and all of it's sleaziness, and yet he takes Cybil Shepherd's character to a porn movie on their first date. This is certainly something that a guy who is hung up on morality issues WOULD NOT be likely to do. Aside from that bit of inconsistency, it is a good movie. Lots of blood. Jodie Foster was really good in this. Is was a difficult role for someone as young as herself, at the time, to portray. But she pulled it off well. Harvey Kitel as a pimp was funny as fuck. I also really liked him in Bad Lieutenant.
