    Mean Streets is bathed in crimson red, giving a sense of destined misfortune, no matter how desperately Charlie tries to fight it. With De Niro's loose cannon Johnny Boy being a constant ball of energy on screen, the film feels like the Safdie brothers 'Good Time' where the stress never ends, it just keeps on rising.
