I watched this on a long flight. It was not at the level of Goodfellas or Casino but I still enjoyed it. Definitely too long, could have been shortened to 2-2.5 hours. Unlike other Scorsese movies, I dont have a desire to rewatch it. I could rewatch Casino or Goodfellas over and over again, films like those will never be made again.

The de-aging tech was wild. Pesci looked the best of all, DeNiro's blue eyes didn't look right, and I dont think Pacino was the right guy to play Hoffa. The de-aging didn't help with fight scenes. It looked like old men fighting lol.

It was a great story. I was interested and was easy to follow along, but damn I wish they didnt wait so long to make it.

I liked it. Maybe some of you are focused on to many details. I wasn't watching him stomping the guy, I was watching him stomp a guy and the horror on his daughter's face. More big picture rather than minute details.
Same with the nazi's I was watching and wondering why they would dig a grave and payed no attention to him being hunched over.

I really enjoyed this! The thing that I love about TCG is that there are a lot of people that just like to shit all over things here and it lowers the bar a ton. I go in with little to no expectations and 95% of the time I always come out enjoying something more than I probably would have.???

Also Deniro beating up the shop owner that shoved his daughter. If the guy’s movement was any more stiff he would have been a piece of pipe!

Basically what everyone said so far I feel. I'm not mad, but I will never, ever watch it again.

Just seemed like a big Hollywood documentary and I actually learned a whole lot.

Best thing that could've happened was this being made 20 years ago. I think anyone giving this a 8 or higher is just too generous
