And I simply could not finish. First of all, this is Goodfellas part V or VI, I am not sure which, but basically the franchise of the Italian mob movie with the same actors got old and lame. And about getting old is the next point I want to make.
No doubt about it, the Digital De-Aging process is a technological breakthrough which I was amazed at how well it restored the faces.
But as i kept watching, something bothered me to no end. something simply did not match. It was the scene where Frank is beating the grocer that I realized what was bothering me: The face did not match the body language. Simply put, the face may have said 40 but the body moved like a 76 year old man moves: without much energy and movement no so ample as in afraid of being hurt.
After that realization, I could not concentrate in the movie’s plot but only in the mismatch of face and body language, so I ended my suffering.
Mind you, it may be a great flick, but even Rambo died and playing with digital botox will only take you so far.
Rambo DIED?!? I know I’m way behind on my third-rate movie watching, and it doesn’t come as a shock, but thanks for the spoiler…
I have not seen it either, but it was announced everywhere!
No. He does not die.
It would be a better ending if he had died, though.
Don’t want to see another Rambo-movie. Sometimes enough is enough.
Another Scorsese mob movie. Let me guess, at some point a Rolling Stones song is used in the soundtrack as well. I’ll pass, I just don’t care about this guy’s movie’s anymore.
I tried to watch it but can’t stand Robert De Niro anymore. Dude’s turned into a grumpy old fart with a herniated testicle and a progtard broomstick up his ass.
Meh.
@minime
I can’t watch any movie with that asshole in it any longer, which is sad as there’s several older/classic ones I enjoyed with other primary actors in it.
I feel ya. 1995’s “Heat” is one of my favorite flicks.
