Martin Scorsese's The Irishman is a fine epic tale starring Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, and Joe Pesci

Rating: 10/10 (24 June 2020)

After months of only knowing about this Martin Scorsese picture, I finally watched this on Netflix. It's quite a compelling tale about an aging hitman's (Robert De Niro) telling of his association with a mafia boss (Joe Pesci) and Teamsters Union head Jimmy Hoffa (Al Pacino). The movie is a little more than three hours so it takes it's own time in going over several decades of the narrative. In doing so, it also uses new technology when depicting those three actors being much younger and older. Quite convincing, those aging and de-aging processes are. I'll just now say The Irishman is another fine film from Scorsese and company.
