Absolute Disaster!

Rating: 1/10 (21 December 2019)

No originality, no subtlety... No eloquence in the storytelling or in any of the lines.
Not to mention the actors, as legendary as they may be, are totally worn out and definitely aren't fit for this kind of film anymore...
In my opinion, the only thing that makes people think this film is successful is the nostalgia it evokes from the classics like Goodfellas or Godfather. Otherwise, it's empty, dull; a complete cinematic failure.
3.5 hours of stealing people's attention and time, though that's what cinema is all about today right? In the world of Netflix? In the end, it's still fun to watch De Niro trying to act as if he is 40 years younger than he really is.
Netflix sees that Al Pacino, De Niro and Joe Pesci together will surely attract many viewers and goes "Hey, let's make a movie everyone's gonna watch! Who cares if it is totally banal and offers nothing to this genre... All it needs is a classic style, best actors from the last century and a simple story line any idiot can follow! Today's viewers aren't that discerning anyway, because we've been feeding them crappy productions with zero originality or creativity for quite some time now..."
This shouldn't have been the way this genre went extinct, but there we are... Commercially speaking, good one tho, this probably will be the one we will all remember. Thank you Netflix...
