Another 22 minutes in...what the deuce?

Rating: 1/10 (30 November 2019)

This movie, not film, definitely not cinema, is a pathetic repackaging of classic Marty. I have not seen a money grab like this since The Godfather III. De Niro's portrayal actually does begin to develop the character, but it's nothing we haven't seen him do before. Pesci is, well, he's F'n Pesci...no complaints. Reminds me of his cameo in A Bronx Tale. Now we get to possibly the absolutely most horrible miscasting decision of all time. Al Pacino is closer to Jimmy Carter than he is to Jimmy Hoffa. All he did was dust off his performance in City Hall, which I love, and...well crap. It's like neither he nor Marty had ever even heard of or seen Jimmy Hoffa. Shoulda brought back Jack. He nailed it. Again, I will finish this movie. I'm a bit scared because I'm 51. Not sure I have that much time left.
