I had big hopes for this movie. My thoughts were that perhaps this would be another Casino or Goodfellas. Unfortunately, disappointment soon kicked in and what looked like a great film turned into boring, longwinded torture.
There are just too many longwinded details and too many faces and names to properly follow the story. This is a movie that takes ages to get to the point and when it gets to some kind of point it takes some more points connected to other points and other details you already forgot an half hour ago to get to no point at all.
It is very obvious that they took old men and made them look young. This was well orchestrated but it definitely was a distraction when it came to following and deciphering the story that was being told.
3 hours+ for a movie is a huge time investment. 2 hours in and I hoped it would get better but it only got worse. Looked like a very promising movie but it completely fell flat.
