The Irishman was good. Really, really good. I can imagine the pacing being a problem for some, as would be the runtime, but I found it enjoyable and interesting throughout. It was good to see Pesci on screen again, and I thought De Niro gave a fascinatingly authentic performance. I don't know how else to describe it. That said, Pacino knocked it out of the park as Hoffa. Best performance in the film to me.
