  I had a different reaction. I thought it was exceptionally well done. I'll certainly watch it again at some point.

  I thought to myself, where have I seen that before? I had enough of that genre, but I remember enjoying watching GoodFellas, which I saw many years after it's release.

  Marty S. has done this movie MANY times with the same actors... The making old people look young NEVER works well... To me it looked like a bad made for TV movie... A complete waste of time!

    I made up somewhat with The Darkest Hour. To see Churchill say those famous sentences that I had learnt in school was exciting. Amazingly well acted movie.

      for (according to my wife) a GREAT portrayal of himself during the blitz.
      
      It's on my to do list.

  I was impressed that Pesci could settle down from a psycho to a serious character.

  The story, ahhh, not so much though it did "humanize" (through those
  performances) the characters to a degree I wouldn't have thought possible.
  
  The pacing was very good for so long a film.
  
  That's gotta be that though for that crew.
  
  They can all hold their heads up proud for it and move on...
