Description

Martin Scorsese’s cinematic mastery is on full display in this sweeping crime saga, which serves as an elegiac summation of his six-decade career. Left behind by the world, former hit man and union truck driver Frank Sheeran (Robert DeNiro) looks back from a nursing home on his life’s journey through the ranks of organized crime: from his involvement with Philadelphia mob boss Russell Bufalino (Joe Pesci) to his association with Teamsters union head Jimmy Hoffa (Al Pacino) to the rift that forced him to choose between the two. An intimate story of loyalty and betrayal writ large across the epic canvas of mid-twentieth-century American history, The Irishman (based on the real-life Sheeran’s confessions, as told to writer Charles Brandt for the book I Heard You Paint Houses) is a uniquely reflective late-career triumph that balances its director’s virtuoso set pieces with a profoundly personal rumination on aging, mortality, and the decisions and regrets that shape a life.

  • Superb Mobster Epic - Classic Scorsese Formula In His Modern Style
Surprisingly excellent character study from mafia-film master, Martin Scorsese. The Irishman (2019) based on the book I Heard You Paint Houses (also the film's onscreen opening title) -an amusing code term for a hired killer paired with the imagery of blood splattering on the walls- is the account of hitman Frank Sheeran's rise in ranks from meat truck driver who is skimming a little too much off the top, to working for major mob boss, his unparalleled skills at killing gaining him the attention of union boss Jimmy Hoffa, their intimate friendship, and the chaotic events surrounding the notorious disappearance of Hoffa. A grand achievement of historical drama and filled with fine acting, cinematography, writing, production values and direction. Certainly has the hallmarks of a Scorsese crime film: the fractured narrative told in voice-over narration (one of the few film makers to really use this technique well), a protagonist with divided loyalty, a thick atmosphere of the criminal underworld, his use of stars De Niro, Pesci, Keitel, and the welcome addition of Pacino etc., and nostalgic use of doo-wop music; as well as his modern style of The Departed (2006), and Boardwalk Empire. Despite an underwhelming reception, perhaps due to it running three and a half hours making it a challenge to motivate one to even begin watching it, the purposeful repetitive use of images and music, or the controversial use of de-aging special effects, Scorsese fans should not be disappointed. I would say the running time and repetition conveys the grinding lifestyle and normalization of Frank's world, going a bit anticlimactic to set up an epilogue unique for a gangster film, while the special effects were barely distracting. This may not be GoodFellas (1990), but I actually liked it more than Casino (1995) and found it compelling enough to watch more than once. Criterion's Blu ray is great, it's a 2 disc set, so there is plenty of extra content, including many interviews with the stars, director and crew, making of documentary, visual essays, booklet and even more. Highly recommended. ... show more

  • Masterful Filmmaking, Immersive and Timeless
The Irishman is a truly remarkable edition of Martin Scorsese’s epic crime saga. The film itself is a cinematic masterpiece, with exceptional storytelling, meticulous pacing, and performances from legendary actors that are both nuanced and unforgettable. What sets this release apart is the high-quality restoration, bonus features, and thoughtful packaging. The transfer is pristine, capturing every subtle detail of the cinematography, while the supplemental content, including interviews, behind-the-scenes footage, and essays, offers deep insight into the making of the film. Owning this collection elevates the experience beyond just watching the movie; it’s an immersive exploration of Scorsese’s craft, the performances, and the historical context, making it a must-have for cinephiles. The Criterion edition treats the film as the art it truly is, rather than just a standard home release. Overall, The Irishman Criterion Collection is a must-have for serious film fans, offering superb quality, engaging extras, and a lasting cinematic experience. ... show more

  • The Grande Finale to Scorsese’s Mob Epics
The Irishman is, quite simply, a Masterpiece. When it was released last year many people were put off by its slow pace and epic length so the film didn’t get anywhere near the recognition it really deserved. In Comparison with Scorsese’s other Mob films such as Mean Streets, Goodfellas and Casino, this one is not nearly as fast and flashy and it moves much more leisurely. But that actually works perfectly with this material and the story Scorsese is telling. The Irishman is much deeper and more melancholy than those films - but don’t worry - it still has plenty of the action and drama that those other other films are known for. It is a story about friendship ...betrayal..and ultimately ....supreme regret. Deniro Pacino and Pesci are all absolutely Magnificent- as you would expect. As Frank Sheeran, Deniro begins by playing his typical gangster persona throughout the early part of the film , then as Frank gets older and the drama unfolds, he brings incredible resonance, regret and sadness. There are some sequences here that are among the finest and most powerful of his career. Pacino is sensational as Jimmy Hoffa with an electrifying performance that really captures the charisma that made him one of the most powerful figures in the Country for many years. Joe Pesci returns to acting in his first role in many years as Russell Bufalino - and of course just casually delivers the best performance of his career. On the surface he seems to be playing a father figure and mentor to Sheeran- but underneath he is as Menacing and as cold blooded as any character he’s ever played. Instead of the fiery gun blazing of Tommy DeSimone from Goodfellas, this time he is QUIETLY a killer -who leaves the dirty work to others. And Pesci seems to relish it. Stephen Graham is also a standout as Tony Pro, Hoffas main rival and he steals just about every scene he is in. As always with Scorsese’s films,The music is just great, perfectly capturing the different time periods the films story takes us through. The films length is formidable, but as you watch the story and Scorsese takes you into his world - you wont even notice it. The Irishman really feels like a Grande Finale to all the other Mob films Scorsese has done - a perfect conclusion to the story he began with Mean Streets and then took through Goodfellas and Casino. This is also likely the last time you will see these talents working together at the very top of their craft like this... so it truly is a film to be treasured. ... show more

  • The Irishman is awesome!!
It took an eternity to get this movie made, then took another eternity to release it on DVD. Though some may think it doesn't "kick ass" like Goodfellas or Casino, it is an amazing movie. DeNiro and Pacino have more screen time together than in any other movie. Like Casino, Goodfellas, or The Departed, it's a movie you can watch over and over again. ... show more

  • ‘You always charge a guy with a gun! With a knife, you run away!’
Martin Scorsese is a unique film director and he has left is impressive stamp on Hollywood for the ages. Having surveyed mob crime thoroughly in his past films, here he cuts to the core of the subject matter in his direction of Steven Zaillian’s screenplay of homicide investigator Charles Brandt’s book I HEAR YOU PAINT HOUSES based on five years of interviews with Frank “The Irishman” Sheeran. Very briefly, the plot synopsis: ‘Left behind by the world, former hit man and union truck driver Frank Sheeran (Robert De Niro) looks back from a nursing home on his life’s journey through the ranks of organized crime: from his involvement with Philadelphia mob boss Russell Bufalino (Joe Pesci) to his association with Teamsters union head Jimmy Hoffa (Al Pacino) to the rift that forced him to choose between the two.’ The film is three and a half hours in length and is so well scripted that it transports the audience into the various locales and situations the story surveys. The dialogue is filled with ‘mob talk’ – which understated, at times intentionally obtuse, language that sounds so natural that the film rings with credibility. The three principle roles are superbly acted by De Niro, Pacino, and Pesci and the supporting cast is vast and exceptionally strong. But the hero of the film is Scorsese, who captures all the tenor of the period surveyed and draws incredibly fine performances from his able cast. There are moments when the nonlinear flow of the story is confusing, but that, too, adds to the suspense of Scorsese’s relating the history. Even the musical score by Robbie Robertson with a montage of 1950s – 1970s popular tunes, enhances the film. Superb work, this is a film that is becoming a legend – already!

  • Yet another Scorsese masterpiece
Organized crime drama film between the Mafia and Jimmy Hoffa, head of the Teamsters union. And another Scorsese masterpiece. A slow paced, character developed, story driven masterpiece. I had empathy for DeNiro’s character and disgusted with him at the same time. If you like Scorsese movies, (Goodfellas, Casino, Gangs of NY etc etc) this is right up there with them. ... show more
