The Irishman (2019)
1/10
Mobster Mash
3 December 2019
This is one way to condense every single mobster movie since Godfather into one film. It's not a good way, perhaps a mini series would have been better. The pacing is so slow it is torture.

It feels like the writers were tired, the actors uninspired. I read Joe Pesci had to be begged out of retirement for this. Unfortunately for him, he did not say no one additional time. None of the stars here needed to make this film for the money, it seems like they all got together and said why not.

Just because you can do something (ie, de-age-ing) doesn't mean it's going to be good. Especially when the script is so cliched, tired, predictable. At least Joe Pesci's character did not yell.

When you feel like you've watched something that is six hours long (twice it's real length) that's not a good thing. Very glad I did not pay to see this.
