    God that was a great movie. Haven’t enjoyed a flick in that way in sometime. Loved it.

    I think someone said it earlier but couldn't believe the real Tony Lip played Carmine in Soprano's what a crazy life he had ,

    Great movie best iv seen in ages,

    Fair point.

    But given how well off Dr Shirley seemed to be, I can't imagine he let Tony go short. Pure speculation on my part though!
    Apparently the real guy fired him and pretty much every other driver he had. But there's no film in that! :D

    100% agree went in not knowing what to expect but I was thoroughly entertained.

    Looks like I'm the first person in this thread that didn't really like it that much. The sort of film that would have been very progressive had it been released 15 years ago but now it seems antiquated.

    Looking at the writing credits; three 60 year old white guys writing dialogue about how all black people eat fried chicken etc... seemed a bit off to me. The whole thing felt like white people patting themselves on the back for not being racist anymore. I can see why some critics see this as a misjudged, self congratulatory piece of crap. Although I personally wouldn't go that far.

    Not awful by any means and the performances were very strong. But I just find myself thinking; "Really? This?"

    Good movie alright.
    Music was good too and it actually looked like he was playing the piano which is rare for actors (except for Clint Eastwood and Jeoff Goldblum).

    Considering the amount of cack I watched through covid this was a welcome break.

    The superimposition of Mahershala Ali's head on to the original piano player was really ropey, though. Their body movements just weren't in sync at all.

    So that's how they did it! I was too busy seeing if the hands were in sync
