Not quite perfect

Rating: 6/10 (9 December 2019)

I enjoyed this movie. The story, writing, and filming was excellent. The primary negative with the film is I found myself constantly confused on the age of the main characters. Scorsese, presumably through his loyalty to Pesci, DeNiro, and Pacino, chose to use makeup and wardrobe to present the age of the three main characters. While I am no film expert and do not even feel comfortable second guessing Scorsese, my experience would have been better served if they had used different actors for the younger stages of the main characters. Is the main bad? No. But it was not near as it could have been for me.
