Movies and TV DeNiro, Pacino, Pesci, Scorsese.....The Irishman trailer

I just finished watching this and I was impressed. I like the way the story came together.

It was much more about the whole interaction between the mob and the teamsters than a movie of violence.

Al Pacino was probably my least favorite as he has become a caricature of himself as he is over the top and the last 10 roles all seem like he is doing the same thing. He didn't come across as Hoffa in anyway to me. Bad casting on that one role.

I thought Pesci was great and played his part very subdued.

Also a lot of this action took place a lot further in the past than it came across in the movie. It was the early to mid 50's into the late 70s. It felt like mid to late 60's to early 80s.

Overall I give it an 8.5-9 out of 10

Yea Pacino was definitely in “because she’s got a great ass!!” Mode.

He did have the one classic scene I mentioned earlier about being late to the Miami meeting.

yeah, Pacino ranting about wearing clothes to a meeting scene was fantastic.
