CGiii Comment

163 minutes of torture...

The main problem is with De Niro, he is more irritating than an unreachable itch. An itch that should be scratched with a Machete.

Minnelli does Garland...a little tiresome.

It was [quite rightly] panned and subsequently [incredulously] praised - some critics simply can't make up their minds! What is abundantly clear, Scorsese simply wasn't equipped to pull this off...some directors should stick to what they do best.
