I mean Scorsese can tell his story how ever he wants but Killers sure did feel too long and too short at the same time.
So did The Irishman. The idea that a film gets better with footage has got to end. Tarantino split Kill Bill and our asses are better for it.
Yeah Scorsese has shit he wants to say, and it’s interesting and compelling stuff. But it doesn’t fit in a tight ninety minutes and I miss a tight ninety minutes.
His films have rarely been that short, though. Even before streaming allowed him to make very long films like The Irishman and Killers of the Flower Moon, he was still averaging well over 2 hours.
Not really. There are people that enjoy it. :-(
