Slow, but really good. A tragedy in slow motion is how I would describe it. De-aging tech was good, only things I noticed were Bobby D's old man movement mentioned up thread and the scene in the kitchen where Pesci tells him Hoffa is done and they did all they could de Niros eyes looked really weird and inhuman but that was probably the lighting.

On thinking about the movie I think it's real strength is that all the mob stuff is pretty much over with half an hour left, and we are just left to watch people get old, be forgotten, be abandoned and die alone. It's actually one of the most effective horror movies I've ever seen. The matter of fact manner of it all just makes it worse. The coffin buying scene is so without sentiment because all that happens is you die, get put in a box and rot there for eternity. There isn't much for the lady characters to do, but the one word of dialogue ("Why?") cuts through all Frank's bullshit and he has no answer, because Peggy has known from when she was a child what her father really was.
