since he's talking about retiring, it's possible that this will be scorsese's gangster-swan song. release date is some time in 2018. that cast, tho:

Robert De Niro
Al Pacino
Joe Pesci
Bobby Cannaval
Harvey Keitel
Angelo Bruno
Ray Romano

Pesci came out of retirement for this? Awesome.

Robtard

I'll definitely watch it once its on netflix. It's Joe f*cking Pesci.

P-Geyser
I will definitely be watching this as well. De Niro, Pacino, Pesci and Scorsese. How they f**k can you go wrong with this? I am excited to see Pacino and Pesci onscreen together.

Should be good, I love watching guys I grew up watching as so many of that age are dead now.

well let me know if it features a lot of female nudity

Surtur
Don't be a b*tch. There wasn't a single boob in Goodfellas.

Senor Cage
Been waiting for the trailer, and it didn't disappoint.

Quite excited about the Al Pacino's performance.

The reviews are universal acclaim.

Patient_Leech
This looks great. thumb up

Khazra Reborn
Hopefully the old crew will be enough for DeNiro to actually roll out of bed, and put in a real performance.

Putinbot1
Really looking forward to this!

Bashar Teg
was going to see it today in manhattan but alas I've been sick af. next week, hopefully

Surtur
Keep in mind the story is a lie though. The Frank Sheeran guy lied. Still I think it will be good.

I have a shoulder injury and watched the rugby this morning over a breakfast involving alcohol at a local hotel bar, hence my excessive posting also. I don't know when we get it but I will be going asap.

Bashar Teg
all the scorcese gangster flicks are heavily embellished, surt. big deal

Putinbot1
Almost a snap!

Surtur
It's one thing to embellish I'm just saying this is more of a straight up lie. Not a big deal.

Bashar Teg
I understated. let me rephrase: most scorcese gangster flicks are heavily fabricated. considering the heavily biased source material, I can't wholly blame him. for example consider goodfellas. does anyone honestly believe henry hill's claim that he never took part in hits?

Surtur
Probably not, but the difference is the book this comes from is a lie. Cops checked out the claims, etc.

But meh.

Bashar Teg
as whirly pointed out already: gangs of new york was wall-to-wall fabrication. casino is at least like 80% fabrication. of all his 'based on true a true story" films, the only ones I trust to be at least 50% rooted in truth are raging bull (not the fight scenes of course), and wolf of wall street (which also obviously suffers from heavy autobiographer's bias)

roughrider
So this is actually playing in theatres down south in America, right now? Because up here in Canada, we just get the ads on Netflix, that it's premiering to stream on November 27.

Bashar Teg
select theaters.

The extended cut is 3.5 hours long(which almost scared me away, tbh), but this film is brilliant. Loved it. thumb up

Surtur

Yes on netflix

I enjoyed it. thumb up

This was f*cking fantastic.

The movie was so absorbing that the three and a half hour run time didn't even feel that long.

I want those 20min back.

Surtur
I liked it, I could see how someone might be turned off by the beginning because I did think it started slow. It is worth sticking it out.

Just watched this. It was an agonizing 3 hours I wish I could have back. Stupid boring. Cannot recommend.

Surtur
Was I the only one who noticed the hit or miss de-aging technology? Sometimes it looks good, but other times it was kinda distracting. Mostly on DeNiro.

BrolyBlack
Way to long. Like an hour to long.

BruceSkywalker
to those that have watched already...

Is this cinema????

tkitna
I watched it on Netflix

It's more like a mobster themed amusement park ride...

Why call it the Irishman, because of JFK?

Surtur

Frank Sheeran was Irish and "The Irishman" was a nickname, cuz he hung with mostly Italian mobsters.

Surtur
Movie also implies the mob were behind the JFK assassination(this is highly dubious, they might have had the ability to kill him, but not the ability to cover it up).

Frank said he was Italian

Surtur

He spoke about learning Italian during the war. Remember the scene where Joe Pesci gives him the ring and says 3 people have these, 1 of them is now an Irishman?

His being Irish is why he could never fully become a part of the mob.

Robtard
Far from one of Scorsese's best, but a good film.

My main problem wasn't that it dragged a bit at times, but the aging and de-aging CGI and makeup, looked very noticeable at times, took you out of the scene.
