Probably about 10-15 minutes too long but an enjoyable film overall. DeNiro’s portrayal of Frank Costello and his interactions with Vito Genovese reminded me of his performance of Sam Rothstein butting heads with Nicky Santoro from Casino in many ways.

Honestly pretty good by Marvel standards these days. This will fall right around or slightly above the mid point for grading all Marvel films.

The film got better as it went along and mixed some very compelling moments with the cringe(to be expected these days). Really good action scenes and performances— especially from Ford and Nelson. Overall, I came away enjoying this movie. (DOLBY) 70/100

Upon review, after seeing it on the big screen again, this movie has been criminally underrated by most(myself included). I went in thinking I…

Monkey Man 2024
A fine film. Probably 10-15 minutes too long. Was a bit drawn out unnecessarily at times in the first 2/3. Really had a satisfying build up and finish in the final 1/3.
