The Audition

This shirt is a history that we might not see again. De Niro and DiCaprio with Scorsese, and plus Pitt?! I only can say wow, what a genius idea. The conversations between De Niro and DiCaprio are priceless and so funny. I think this movie should've been rated 10, no kidding. People who understand the cinematography, definitely will appreciate this 15mins comedy. I've watched 3 times already, I think I can watch it everyday:). Happy watching!

Unfortunately, this short film left me disappointed. It deviates from the essence of art and storytelling, resembling more of an advertisement for resorts and casinos. The involvement of renowned actors and directors in such a commercial venture raises questions about the intersection of art and personal branding. The film's subpar direction and clichéd dialogue make it puzzling why Hollywood stars invest their time in promoting resorts or casinos. It's a stark contrast to what one might expect from their illustrious careers. I wouldn't include this experience on my resume, reflecting a trend in today's acting landscape. Enjoy watching "The Audition" short film, but be prepared for a different cinematic experience.

A very strange short film/15-minute-long hotel advertisement starring Martin Scorsese's two favourite lead actors (and Scorsese himself), I guess The Audition is fun for the novelty of seeing De Niro and DiCaprio together, and for providing a little entertainment value, but that's about it. It's otherwise ridiculous that this apparently cost $70 million to make - I guess everyone involved was seen as worth it, from a business perspective, but I wish they'd done a little more with what it was about.

De Niro and DiCaprio both want a part in Scorsese's latest movie. They squabble over it for a while, and then while there is a punchline, it's really not funny enough. I wish it ended with a bit more of a bang, to kind of make the whole thing feel worth it.

Feels ridiculous to even review a commercial, but it's a long and expensive one, and you could generously call it a short film. I wish it either looked a little nicer or was written a little better (even the screenwriter here is a big name - it's Terence Winter, who did the screenplay for The Wolf of Wall Street, wrote for The Sopranos, and created Boardwalk Empire).

It's good to see Scorsese team up with his two favorite actors DiCaprio and DeNero for the first time. Yes, it's only a 15 min short movie but it's still entertaining Thank you

"The Audition," directed by Martin Scorsese, left me feeling a bit disappointed and disenchanted. The film came across as somewhat amateurish and indulgent, lacking the depth and creativity that I have come to associate with Scorsese's work. Rather than revealing the brilliance and innovation that define his other films, this short felt more like an ego-boosting exercise with a juvenile imagination. The narrative lacked complexity, coming across as a rather simplistic depiction of what could have been a dream short. Most notably absent was Scorsese's renowned panache, a quality that usually permeates his films with an irresistible charm and sophistication. As a result, I found myself feeling not only let down but also somewhat saddened by this unexpected departure from the director's usual brilliance. While some may find enjoyment in its unique approach, "The Audition" failed to resonate with me and left me longing for the mastery that Scorsese has showcased in his other works."
