A visually stunning film with exceptional cinematography, acting, costume design, music, details, story, and twists - everything is great! However, there's something missing that usually hooks viewers, compelling them to revisit and watch their favorite scenes or the entire movie repeatedly. I'm not sure what this element is called, but its absence is felt. Moreover, this story doesn't warrant a 3-hour and 30-minute runtime; it lacks a vast timeline or an extensive cast of characters. Despite some flaws, I found 'The Irishman' more captivating due to its engaging storytelling. This element seems absent here. If this film weren't a Scorsese project, I would happily rate it an 8 because everything else is great! Yet, I yearn for Scorsese's magical storytelling, which has always made him stand out. Unfortunately, I didn't find it in this film. Additionally, the suited gangster motifs and headshots from behind are becoming clichéd. Scorsese, please create a few more movies and imbue them with your unforgettable magic!
