Good film but not great

Rating: 7/10 (27 November 2019)

The premise that Frank Sheeran was behind the murder of Jimmy Hoffa is tenuous at best and so this movie postulates what could've happened versus what did and among the many theories espoused about Hoffa's disappearance this one has much less credibility.
Beyond that I found the movie started to drag out and the last half hour was to the point of unbearable. To keep a viewer interested in a three hour flick is a tough act with the best of stories but there just wasn't enough meat on the bones of this story to hold my attention for that long. To me this film was worth watching for Joe Pesci alone and while De Niro and Pacino but in a solid effort I found nothing really all that worthy that they didn't deliver in other films of higher caliber. Probably best this movie went to Netflix as a theatrical release would've strained people's attention spans.
