Reel Phonies

Over two decades after Goodfellas and Casino, Martin Scorsese is getting the band back together for one last hurrah. Featuring the power trio of Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, and the formerly retired Joe Pesci, Scorsese once again delves into violent, familiar waters in this three and a half hour gangster epic to tell the story of former mob enforcer and Jimmy Hoffa associate, Frank Sheeran. Is it too long? Should movies like this only be seen on the big screen? Is this an irresponsible narrative to be promoting? And most importantly, is it better than Michael Bay's Transformers?
