Having watched an avalanche of films, I took a couple of weeks break, mainly due to work and illness. However, I was back and with Scorsese’s big gangster film doing a limited theatrical run before it goes onto Netflix, I had to see it (Even if gangster films aren’t usually my cup of tea).
Sitting at a staggering 3 hours and 30 minutes (Forty six minutes longer than 2001: A Space Odyssey, and thirteen minutes longer than Schindler’s List), the Irishman certainly provides a lot of film. Most of this works and for such a lengthy flick, the pacing is done well, with no scene feeling like it particularly could be cut.
