It didn’t take a genius to see that television was finally poised to win the war against movies. I just didn’t expect my teacher to be leading the charge against theatrical exhibition.

The Irishman is a much more deliberate and weighty gangster film – by comparison, Goodfellas is a riot. But it’s a vibe that works in its gravitas.

The affecting, ruminative finale and the melancholic last scene leaves a metaphorical door ajar in our hearts, a deep hollow that’s hard to fill…

Despite its length, The Irishman is riveting. It confirms Scorsese as one of the great American filmmakers.

There are 209 minutes in “The Irishman” and not one of them is wasted.

TOP CRITIC
Whether seen on the big screen or a small one, The Irishman is among 2019’s best motion pictures and should receive its share of Oscar attention in 2020.

TOP CRITIC
The best comparison one could make to The Irishman is David Lean’s similarly epic-sized Lawrence of Arabia (1962), a biography that examines its subject for four hours before conceding to its unknowability.

Deep Focus Review
The Irishman gives its audience so many emotions and is poignant, funny, violent, and beautiful. It is a modern-day mobster masterpiece from a master of his craft.

A towering achievement in storytelling not just cinema.

Irishman represents, with its somber and mournful mood, what may be Scorsese’s farewell to the sort of gangster tales that largely made his reputation.

A wonderful three and a half hours… a very human story.

The Irishman is grand and ambitious, asking unanswerable questions about legacy, sorrow, and death.
