Long long movie... but it doesn't feel like a 3-1/2 hour film

antbkny · 18 November 2019, 08:08 AM

I heard the story line was a bit off

MSchu · 18 November 2019, 08:16 AM

Hard to say... while I was alive during that period, no one really knows the absolute truth.
if goodfellas was a 10/10... and casino was a 9/10, The Irishman is a 7.5/10.
the computer enhancement is annoying at first, but then you get used to it and it really doesn't affect the story or acting.

thanks for the review, I’m looking forward to seeing it

JohnnyH75 · 18 November 2019, 08:58 AM

has a good cast of actors looking forward to seeing it as well!!

_speedmaster_ · 18 November 2019, 09:50 AM

Haven’t seen it yet, but a friend of mine had a small part in the movie (he’s not an actor, just showed up for open casting and got the part). Not sure if they kept his part in, but he was a groomsman for some wedding scene at a church (coincidentally the same church that ran the catholic school I attended until I was 10).

Likely one I’ll see on cable someday.

People say you don't notice the time but I can't sit without breaks for that long, one I will watch at home.

“Someday” is coming in 10 days. The Irishman will be available to Netflix subscribers on November 27th.
Considering how long this film is having it available at home will make it very convenient to watch. Looking forward to it.

Chewbacca · 18 November 2019, 10:19 AM

Superb cinema.

Great story. Great acting.

Pesci will get the Supporting Actor Oscar.

If you appreciate lugholes on Rolexes, you’ll love this movie.

AzPaul · 18 November 2019, 10:29 AM

Because you can never go to the same well too many times.

Agreed.

But the movie still has to be good.

And it works for Rolex.

Did you see Joker raked in over 950 million worldwide on a 60 million budget? It will exceed 1 billion easily. Quite impressive for a standalone comic book character flick.

Also a good one.

I did not know that. Thanks for that information.

BigBoy17 · 29 November 2019, 09:46 AM

Great cast of actors, 3 1/2 hours long. I think pachino did a good job at playing hoffa. What do you guys think of the cgi effects? I feel like there getting better and better with it.

nick c · 29 November 2019, 10:42 AM

I just finish watching it. Nice movie

It was worth the time.

huncho · 29 November 2019, 10:44 AM

i thought it was really good. the ending was depressing though, felt too real considering their actual ages

was funny seeing deniro every time he kicked/shot people because you could tell its still a 76 yr old man no matter the cgi lol

austinp · 29 November 2019, 10:59 AM

I'm half way through. So far it's just ok for me. The story is pretty slow moving and a few of the scenes are flat out rediculas given the age of the actors. Hopefully the second half picks up.

grateful to have seen it in theaters.

kind of sad a movie like this can’t get a wide release today.

RW16610 · 29 November 2019, 12:50 PM

I actually watched it yesterday, it's a fantastic film.
To be expected from Martin Scorsese though.

Yeah it's a bit ridiculous. All 3 of the guys are north of 75 years old. In some scenes it looks like they could be in their 50s, but 30s/40s was not believable.

G8RDPM · 29 November 2019, 03:30 PM

I’d rather spend 3 1/2 hours here!

Loved it

I had previously read the book and I found that it held the storyline quite nicely

Headshrinker · 30 November 2019, 12:48 AM

Over the past few decades, I thought De Niro and Pacino were just overacting clowns. The Irishman shows that they, are indeed, very capable actors. Although the movie was over 3 1/2 hours long, it was a very good movie.

brandrea · 30 November 2019, 12:53 AM

I’ll be watching it this weekend ... thanks for not spoiling it everyone

I'll be doing the same.

Saw the clip w/ Scorsese & gang talking shop about the making of The Irishman, loved that conversation.
