The Irishman - anyone watching?

[greyl]

3. Had at least a couple things that took me out of the experience, making it seem unpolished.

(El Camino is significantly better, imo.) I'd say it's still a must-see movie.

-Maniscalco's appearance seemed way out of place for the overall tone of the movie. People that haven't seen his stand-up or Comedians in Cars episodes probably wouldn't have the same reaction. I was being happy for him getting the role, wondering about his Netflix contract, - *bam* out of movie.

-The horribly lip-synced lounge act is the movie's low point for me. (similar to the shifty wig in JFK, not that the wig is the only thing wrong with JFK by any stretch)

It was definitely an interesting telling of the Hoffa history, with many great tense moments, and I assume it stayed fairly true to facts. Haven't checked on that. Will likely hit the play button on it again in a year or two.
