Get comfy. It'll be worth it, believe me.

Rating: 10/10 (30 November 2019)

First off, do not be put off by the running length. At no point did I look at the clock. This is a well paced film extremely well written and produced that spans six decades. The powerhouse blending of DeNiro, Pesci & Pacino make this Scorsese's Magnum Opus imho. DeNiro adding narration to keep the viewer informed is a great touch and there is humour to offset the brutality. Great performance from Stephen Graham, further enhancing his reputation as one of Britain's best actors.
There are some doubts as to the accuracy of the story, both from Scorsese's interpretation & indeed from Sheeran's own words especially regarding Jimmy Hoffa's demise. You want cast iron facts? Go watch the Discovery Channel! You want to watch a great movie that caps all gangster movies? As I say in the title; get comfortable. It'll be worth it.
