For an aging audience

Rating: 8/10 (22 February 2020)

This movie is for for the generations of fans who remember great movies of DeNiro and Pacino and others. It's a trip down memory lane, listing movies inspired by history and culture. It also attempts to bridge generations by including a few younger actors in minor roles. They will be able to say they were in a movie with Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro. The pacing of the movie is deliberately slow, to give a sense of the span of time. The acting is beyond reproach, the story line is drawn out in too much detail, but the period settings and accessories are great fun. The movie also shows how generally corrupt much of society is and how difficult it is to hold criminals to account.
