Review of The Irishman (2019) by Egoborder — 04 Dec 2019
Aside from the awful CGI de-aging effects, which don't work at all except to constantly remind the audience they're watching a famous old actor pretending to be younger, this movie is just off somehow.
It doesn't have the greatest of introductions, and it suffers from bad pacing throughout. As it is, it's a challenge to remain invested in the story despite good characters and subject matter. Scorsese seems distracted here, and his usual energy is missing.
Worth a watch, but given its length it will feel like a slog at times.
