Self Indulgent Nonsense

Rating: 1/10 (2 November 2019)

A group of 70-something year olds trying to act tough. Watching De Niro's lame attempts at cleaning up the streets (roughing people up that are half his age) was as much a farce as his and Pacino's acting in this crap. The dialogue comes off as "hey, what clever things can we say because the camera is on." Nothing comes off natural here. You want Hoffa? Check out Nicholson in Hoffa which was directed by De Vito. This? Please. Scorsese attempts his best to polish a crap... we all know it can't be done. If you insist on seeing it, Pesci's character is good. His performance trumps the rest. Very much a letdown otherwise.
