Outside of Stardust, in which Robert De Niro plays a cross-dressing pirate, the only good film he has been featured in in the past seven years or so was The Good Shepherd, a film he had a minor role in and directed. He was approaching the film with thoughts of a sequel on the outset, but the relatively slow pace turned most people off leading to mixed reviews, a mere $59+ million at the box-office and about a two-and-a-half month run at the box-office. The birth-of-the-cia based drama starred Matt Damon and featured the talent of Angelina Jolie, William Hurt, John Turturro, Billy Crudup, Michael Gambon, Alec Baldwin, Timothy Hutton and Joe Pesci and still couldn't manage to make a dent. It doesn't surprise me considering it is a very slow and methodical film, but in the right frame of mind I think most would really like it, just as I did.
