Episode #148: Tributary - The Irishman

Welcome to December everyone!  You can now safely decorate for Christmas, thank you to everyone who waited.  This week the guys stayed home and watched the biggest film release of the long holiday weekend Martin Scorsese’s latest gangster film The Irishman.  Extra special topics today include de-aging, Mike and Matt throw shade at each other, and structure? The Irishman is an incredible film with a great story saturated with history.  It is classic Scorsese at his best!  Yes it is a long film, very long but worth it.  Do yourself a favor and try to watch it in one sitting.  It will be difficult, especially with the ease of streaming shows and movies today but it is honestly the best way to watch The Irishman.  Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, and Joe Pesci do we really need to say more?  They were just incredible along with the excellent and vast supporting cast.  The de-aging effects were well done for the most part. There are a few times when the effect doesn’t look quite right but overall it is remarkable what film makers can do today.  The Irishman is a great film and well worth a watch.  If you have it in a theater near you definitely see it there but it is in super limited release.  This movie for sure will be making waves at the Academy Awards early next year. Matt and Mike in the extremely rare occasion agree on a rating giving Scorsese’s latest masterpiece 4 out of 5 Reels. Next week the guys return to the theaters to watch the sequel to the 2017 surprise hit Jumanji: The Next Level.  What did you think of our attempt at a structured podcast?  Let us know in the emails, the social medias, or carrier pigeon.  Thanks for hanging out with us and we will chat at you next week.
