The Irishman - Netflix - GoFuckYourself.com

CurrentlySober · 11-30-2019, 04:51 PM

Good movie, but way too long. Had they simply edited out the Pacino / Hoffa character entirely, the film would have been a much more reasonable length, and all the better for it.

What say you?

CaptainHowdy · 11-30-2019, 05:43 PM

You cannot beat Nicholson's Hoffa . . .

SilentKnight · 11-30-2019, 06:09 PM

Pesci was great...but Pacino's Hoffa was lacking. Half the time he seemed more like Tony Montana.

Axeman · 11-30-2019, 06:52 PM

Felt made about 10-15 years too late as well, even with the tech used to make them appear younger, DeNiro still moved liked a 70 year old man when doing a few of his beatings in the early years.

I enjoyed it and I guess that was the good thing with Netflix. Hit pause and resume it. If in the theatre, I would have gotten pretty stir crazy I suspect.

lock · 11-30-2019, 08:49 PM

I had to turn it off I got bored figured will give it another go as love Joe and Robert together.

Paul Markham · 12-01-2019, 02:32 AM

I enjoyed it, but no Casino, Goodfellas, The Departed, etc.

DeadFidel · 12-01-2019, 04:48 AM

The trailer seemed a bit too complex. Will give a try though... I like poo.

todservices · 12-01-2019, 05:01 AM

It was good, but they are too old man i'm sorry, i don't buy it anymore
when one sees de niro beating up this one guy on the sidewalk, it's sad....

But great music, great scenery, good story, nice 60's cars and 60's feel

I'm sorry i'm getting old myself LOL so it's nothing against their age per se
but when you are 70, it's sad to act in a gangster movie like you are 29

That same movie with good actors in their 30-40's would have been the bomb!

like watching clint eastwood these days

It's hard to picture DeNiro as Irish even with blue contact lenses. There's a lot of fiction in the movie, but Hoffa was a huge force back then especially with union money. DeNiro's character was made out to be more than he was in real life. Otherwise not a bad movie.

k0nr4d · 12-01-2019, 11:04 AM

I felt it was a shit movie with a bunch of over the hill actors. The tech used to make them look younger was just creepy looking. Pesci kept calling what looked like a 55 year old man "kid"... Could they not find a similar looking actor?

Dirty Dane · 12-01-2019, 08:26 PM

Actually, it could be longer and more detailed. As a serie. But this was too short for serie, and too long for a movie.

OneHungLo · 12-01-2019, 08:27 PM

I can't get into anything with De Niro since he's turned into a batshit crazy TDSer. Same with Tom Cruise.

You know, I was thinking about that as well.

I don't fucking get it. They "speak out" but have nothing to gain. Does DeNiro really think that people are going to be all "I'm going to see this movie because he hates Drumph!". Or all those singers etc that are speaking out blah blah. All this does is polarize their fan base. They won't gain any fans because people are fans based on talent and not on political views, and they risk losing some due to basically saying to half their fans "You are stupid because you voted for Trump". No one's going to buy someone's cds or go to a concert to listen to music they dislike because "OMG THIS LADY HATES TRUMP JUST LIKE ME!!!".

These celebrities must really feel that they are important influential people if they think they are changing anyone's mind about anything. I think for most people celebrities are just someone you watch for 1,5 hrs and then forget exist until the next time you see a movie trailer.

This

definitely would love to see it as series

lezinterracial · 12-02-2019, 01:20 PM

I liked seeing Stephen Graham and Bobby Cannavale from Boardwalk Empire.

Stephen Graham as Baby Face Nelson in Public Enemies.

I totally agree. These celebs need to STFU and just do their craft.

I have a Basic Life Rule I wish all humans would make their own.
I don't want to know:

1. Who you pray to.
2. Who you vote for.
3. Who you fuck.

Simple, right? Maybe that's why I'm such a happy mofo.

why not? he's done it a few times before. Goodfellas, This boy's life

Rochard · 12-02-2019, 02:16 PM

Good movie but way too long.

I watch Netflix while at the gym, and it seems I went looking for this movie the day before it was released. Instead I watched "Killing The Irishman". The next day when I watched The Irishman I thought it was about... The Irishman. I had no idea who it was really about.

Good movie, but way too long.

Too long!

AmeliaG · 12-18-2019, 11:46 AM

I bailed before we see Hoffa. I usually love gangster movies, but this was unwatchably dull, punctuated with occasional purposeless unpleasant violence.

I mean, kudos on the special effects I guess, but how long should the camera linger on old-man-reads-map-but-we-mostly-cgi-him-to-look-an-indeterminate-age.
