The only good, even great, thing about this movie is the performance by Joe Pesci. Oscar-worthy performance.

Everyone else is just cardboard cutouts placed here and there. No character development, no story arch - hell, no story at all.

The pacing is glacial at best. It feels like the whole thing was written as 8-part TV series and at the last minute someone decided to make it into a feature film, cutting here and there. You can literally get up, go to the toilet, boil an egg, get back and you wouldn't have missed anything important.

The face techonology feels like I am watching a videogame (not even a current one), much less a feature film. Hard to believe this is being touted as a break-through technology.

All in all, the only thing that reminds you that this indeed is a Scorcese film is his favorite cast - Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, Joe Pesci.

Sad for the wasted talent. Really, a great disappointment.
