Movie: The Irishman

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Movie: The Irishman (Page 1 of 5)

Posted: 11/27/2019 11:40:14 AM EDT

Is worth the 3+ hr sit. A great addition to America's Gangster film catalogue.

Yes DeNiro sucks blah blah blah, most of them do these days. But the story is well told and thought provoking.

I have heard it is a GREAT movie, I cannot stand Dinero, so I will not be spending my money on it. Fuck that guy right in the neck.

For a second I thought you meant Kill the Irishman. That was a great movie.

Supporting this movie is the same thing as supporting DeNiro. I think DeNiro might be a transgender. He looks like a man but acts like he has a pussy?

1917, Midway... this movie... A ton of good movies coming out this time of year.... surprisingly. I'm definitely planning on seeing this.

Been waiting on this - looks like it'll be a Goodfellas type of movie with old school actors.

Since it's 3 + hours long it'll be a night time watch for me.

I don't give a fuck about that old guys politics, just entertain me.

Hey, did you here that Scorsese and De Niro made another movie about mobsters?

No shit? When was the last time they made a movie about anything BUT mobsters.

They can complain about SuperHero Movies all day long, but I'd rather watch ANTMAN than another movie about mobsters doing mobster shit, again.

Pretty much sums it up for me, too.

I was never for mob movies in the first place, if we're going to be honest.

Watched it, holy fuck its long.

It was good though, pretty funny.

Thanks for the reminder. I'll watch it

Posted: 11/27/2019 11:36:03 PM EDT

As I said in one of the other threads it's not boring but it isn't Godfather, Goodfellas or Casino riveting.

Posted: 11/27/2019 11:37:47 PM EDT

[#36]

I'll pirate it later.

Posted: 11/27/2019 11:39:26 PM EDT

Half way through, it's decent so far.

Def seems to be lacking the gangster aspect from Casino but not bad so far

Because he’s a communist cunt?

He nearly bankrupted the next town down from me, because he’s a communist cunt who thinks that he gets a pass on the communist shit he advocates for.

Wow, let me guess, did it have an extensive soundtrack of contemporary pop songs that drowned out the dialogue?

Posted: 11/28/2019 12:23:39 AM EDT

It was good. Not on the level of Goodfellas by any means, but still well worth watching. What struck me most about Deniro’s performance is that while they can make him look like he’s younger, they can’t make him move like it. There’s one scene where he’s mixing it up with someone, and it literally reminded me of the video of the two old Russian ladies fighting with their purses.

Haven't heard one yet. It's a period piece.

It's Def well done, just not a classic IMHO

I just finished this. Not so good. It should have been 1.5 hours, if so, it would have been ok. Also, the cgi effects to make the actors look young were so-so, but deniro walked and held posture like an old geezer so that didn’t look good at all

I tried watching this movie last week, lost interest after about 20 mins...I just didn't like the main character.

Haven't seen it yet but heard the de-aging technology was really good. Amazing what they can do these days.

Posted: 11/28/2019 12:39:17 AM EDT

[#47]

I finished it. It's ... odd.

The de-aging is very distracting when slapped on an old man's body. DiNero walks, eats, poses, and talks like an old man, very stiff with a hunch, tight shoulders and small steps - then they try to put a face of a 30 year younger man on his face. I hope this de-aging CGI stays in 2019. Whomever decided to recolor everyone's eyes needed to be slapped senseless - I know Sheeran had blue eyes, not sapphire platinum. Looked like a character from the Avengers, not a mob movie.

What was up with executing Germans in the Italian theatre of war? Was that a thing? Should have just been left as, "I did my fighting, I did my killing, that was my business, now I'm used to it..." sorta thing.

Al Pacino did a great Hoffa. Pesci did some great acting and dialogue, you forget you were watching Pesci. It's a more mature role for him.

It's just Goodfellas that's stretched out with bits and blaps of Godfather II. For being 3.5 hours, it sure doesn't dive deep into any subject matter other than Hoffa half way through. Only thing they put in about Kennedy was some campaigning and assassination news on T.V.? Bay of pigs with some truck driving and background news reports? Marty broke the cardinal rule - show, don't tell.

5/10. Watch it in two parts.

It's supposed to be great, but every mob movie I've seen just makes me think they're trying to do The Godfather again, and it just ain't the same. The GF wants to see it though so I figure I will at some point.
