Review of The Irishman (2019) by Ajzeg01 — 10 Jan 2020
Speaking of Netflix, they also put out an epic crime drama masterpiece by Martin Scorsese. This movie is pretty great! The performances are all excellent, the story is never slow or boring despite the 3.
5 hour runtime and the effects are incredible! The ageing and de-ageing effects make Prometheus and TRON Legacy look worse than they already did! It’s barely noticeable, way more convincing than Tarkin and Leia in Rogue One.
This movie has a very classic feel with its actors and setting and subject matter, but at the same time is original and brings the genre to the next level. It’s not just about nostalgia. Other movies should take notes.
While I did find it kinda complicated and hard to follow at times, this is a must-see. It’s on Netflix, so it’s very accessible. Put an afternoon aside and give it a watch. It definitely takes you on a journey.
