I love many Scorsese films, but...The Irishman is an overly long nostalgia piece: the gangsters are ruthless; the women are mere bystanders and funeral attendees (why hire Anna Paquin just to glower?); the make-up and computer manipulated faces are distracting. Seeing Pesci, Pacino and DeNiro together again is enjoyable for a while, but the film just feels soulless and empty to me. No ideas, no message--just a fraternal reunion of some acting pals. Not satisfying.
