Atom User Reviews for The Irishman
One of the few that exceeds the tremendous hype.
ANOTHER tremendous story told by an acknowledged master director and cast. superb
Don't let the length scare you away. When it's Scorsese it goes fast.
I was in the movie -I played a Teamster-great cast -great people -Mr Scorsese a legend -fantastic film
Scorsese proves he still knows what he’s doing. The cast is all wonderful here and for a 3 and a half hour movie it kept me intrigued almost the entire runtime. If your theater has it it’s a must see in theaters, if it doesn’t then make sure you check it out on NetFlix on the 27th
Excellent movie just a little too long!
See it.
3.5 hours
Intense, somber film that’s really about the end of a life that was a series of bad choices. Rough and well played.
Great cast, superbly directed, great storytelling. An epic that was easy to follow and understand.
You can’t get better then this with a cast that was meant for these roles! The attention to detail that Scorsese brings is pure movie magic!
It was not bad, but i expected it to be one of Scorsese's best, instead it dragged on and was just ok imo. From what ive read its not the true story of Jimmy Hoffas murder, which took away from the interest for me. Still good, but could have been better.
This movie was so well made. The CGI is insane! I still can’t get over it. The music and the sound FX were perfect. Story was very interesting. The acting was superb in every way. I think it’s a must see ... it’s long ... so bring snack and a drink lol.
AMAZING. Cinema at its finest.
Scorsese at his best!
Amazing cast and storytelling, visually rich. Seeing it in a theater made it perfection . Did not disappoint.
As good as The Godfather!
Metacritic
Scorsese’s gangster movies indulge the genre’s pleasures, of course, but in each of them—all seven of them—he’s looking for spirituality and for humanity. In The Irishman, he’s in self-reflection mode, glancing at his career-long search for God while pondering his own age.
So, yes, it’s an epic of sorts. But many years have passed since a Scorsese movie found so much life in such small moments: at a bowling alley, around a dinner table, at a telephone in the room next to the dining room, where a killer stumbles through a sympathy call to the wife of Jimmy Hoffa, missing presumed dead.
