Remember the end of Goodfellas/Wolf of Wall St

Rating: 7/10 (26 November 2019)

Where the fun comes to a complete HALT, and everyone starts getting busted and paranoid and it just kind of feels wrong. Thats the last 2 hours (out of 3 1/2) of this movie. The first half is this historical epic about friendship and conflict, then after a certain celebratory dinner the movie just takes a nosedive into modern Clint Eastwood levels of old man sloth time. Call it what you want "meditative, reflective" but holy baloney that 2 hour ending is just so boring, and exposes Deniro's underwritten character. For a 3 and a half hour movie your lead needs to be strong, but Deniro lacks any opinion the entire film. After everything I need a rewatch but given its runtime i dont see that happening for a while.
