The story isn’t as clever as everyone makes it out to be, but it still kept you hooked nonetheless. Definitely check it out if you get a chance.

Instead, Caitriona Balfe, who plays Miles’s wife, Mollie, is presented as the doting mother: She smiles mildly and nods her head indulgently as her husband struggles to gain traction in the race world. She clucks and scolds like a schoolmarm when Miles and Shelby come to blows on her front lawn — then brings them each a soda pop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be seeing it soon. I love Matt Damon and Christian Bale so I'm sure I'll like it for them at least. That much is true. They shortened it to the winning year. It would have dragged on way too long to do the full 4 years or whatever it was. They swapped out a few key players too but overall pretty faithful to what really happened.

Kults Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 ^ I didn’t care for it. Bloated (3:30 mins.. really?) over indulgent, production value felt cheap and it basically went nowhere. A few amazing scenes, the kind only Scorsese can do. Overall very underwhelming though. Great actors just shit material. Also, I don’t buy Deniro as a tough guy anymore.. some 80 yr old beating ppl up half his age... lol sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s exactly the scene that was the most jarring for me lol like no sorry the guy barely looks like he can hold himself up much less curb stomp a dude Had a good editor taken a hacksaw to it and cut it down to 1:30 with just the better parts it would could have been a decent movie. It’s pretty obvious Scorsese, DeNiro and Pecci’s best days are behind them though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Velcoro Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Knives Out: 4/5 I typically love who-done-its, but this one was particularly well done. The cast did a superb job, Craig is awesome, and the main actress is as talented as she is beautiful. Halfway through I was prematurely bothered by what I though they were doing with it, only to be pleasantly surprised when it came full circle. I'm usually pretty good at sniffing out endings, but I was confused until the big reveal. Beautifully shot on top of it all. Presentation was also superlative. Plenty of humor but it never felt goofy. Michael Shannon is as underrated as any actor ever. Would definitely suggest. ===================================================================================== The Irishman: 4/5 Long...I know, but other than a drag here or there, it never gets boring. Although the last 15 could have been trimmed down to 5 mins or so, I get what MS was trying to say. De Niro is definitely the weak spot, he looked every bit his age and the aforementioned stomp scene literally made me laugh out loud. Pesci plays his role perfectly and it was cool to see him as a more subdued, calculated gangster than a gun-slinging maniac. Pacino fucking stole the movie, honestly I would have preferred him as the main character. Best Hoffa performance I have ever seen. ''This, is, my, union'' almost brought me to tears. It could have been done as masterfully in 3 or less, but let's be real, MS only has a film or two left in him. Go see this in theaters or you'll regret it if you're a cinephile. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
