Yea, I’m
About an hour in. Will have to watch in pieces

Didn’t realize Harvey Keitel was in this too. Scorcese really brought out the all star team lineup.

Yep, even Lois the babysitter has a significant role in this one. Several others from mob related shows from HBO as well.

Scorsese put the band back together for this one, its like a greatest hits reunion tour.

Seeing 70 year old guys trying to play and sing their greatest hits isn't always so great

Bruce Springsteen did a show last week at the Stone Pony and one of buddys who was there commented on how we are all old and can't outrun Father Time no matter how hard we try.

This movie was overrated AF. Complete snore fest

That would still have been great to see though.

Really?

It has some Instant classic scenes.

“that’s what you wear to a meeting?”
“Don’t be late to a meeting “. “More than 10 minutes late, that’s saying something “

Great scene!

I went ahead and started watching it the other night - got nearly halfway through.

I'm not sure if I'll finish it or not. Just feels like been there, done that, with better material, more than once. I mean, how many retreads of the Scorcese/DeNiro/Pesci Lowlife Greaseball Show do we need? After a while it's just like another Jason Bourne movie, with big meals instead of car chases.

Deniro was great in the Joker- I really liked the part where his dumb ass got shot dead on camera.

It’s definitely slower paced than those other gangster films, but it’s still really, really good.

Ultimately it’s pretty sad. The last half hour or so is about aging and dying alone.

That sounds really great.

Hour in, I'm having trouble talking myself into finishing it.
