I think we're all obliged to say we like it because it's from Scorsese and has all these "legendary" actors. But it isn't good. I imagine it went something like this:

Pitch-man: Got a great idea for a movie. Money-man: Tell me. PM: Scorsese will direct. MM: Wow. PM: Yeah, but that's not all. It'll have De Niro, Pacino, Pesci, Keitel, Romano... MM: Yow, those are big names. Those guys are great. Or, were great. PM: Well, yeah! And Anna Paquin, too. MM: Oh good, for the kids. PM: Yeah. MM: One problem. How do we afford all those big names? PM: Got that covered, and it's genius. MM: Do tell. PM: No script writers! MM: Whaat? PM: Naw, we'll put in names for writers. But really, we just give the actors an idea what the scene's about and, and we let 'em go! Just let 'em go! MM: Ah... PM: Naw, you kiddin'? It'll be great! They're great actors! They're legends! MM: Well, maybe, but... you ever heard actors talk? Without a writer? Actually talk? It's, it's not pretty. You don't want that. MM: Trust me, it'll be great.

And that's just what it sounds like. About 45 minutes of plot crammed into 209 bloated, indulgent minutes. Amazingly bad dialogue, if you even want to call it that. An as others have remarked, older people acting and moving like older people with somewhat youthened faces...not an appealing effect.

So I'm not with the pack on this one. Not recommended.
