By which I mean I can't decide to give him a hug or run like ****. ie, is this Will Hunting or Travis Bickle

MMC has never has never played a role close to as good as Taxi Driver or Ragin Bull.
De Niro has never played a role (even if the movie is crap) as badly as MMC did in Two for the Money. I get that he is choosing better roles and doing a great job recently, but De Niro's Ceiling is much, much higher and his floor is much higher as well.
