Will Trump supporters watch it?


I read they are boycotting everything De Niro.

Trump supporters should LOVE this movie because of Al Pacino's Jimmy Hoffa -- while I was watching him have non-stop tantrums if he didn't get his way and calling everyone around him idiot c*cksuckers I was thinking that's Trump!

Trump likes to sound like he's all mobbed up. It's one of his most pathetic qualities.

More like the not drinking thing

Well I did and I really enjoyed this movie. I couldn't care less about what Deniro's political opinions are but he is a good actor. I can look past these differences and enjoy the art without getting offended in some way. There are snowflakes in both sides that try to ruin everything for everyone..

Yeah I reckon a certain cross section of Trump supporters will boycott DeNiro's work, but in my experience conservatives are results rather than "tendies" driven.
You do realise which side of the political spectrum is the main force behind "cancel culture" right?.

They're not.

It's like DiCaprio. I watched the first few minutes of Gilbert Grape and broke down crying his acting is so brilliant. He'd follow any Climate Change socialist right off a cliff like a lemming, which is too bad, because he's possibly the most talented actor out there. With every latest kooky thing he says, people line up to boycott him. It lasts until the next news cycle.

I love good acting. I heard there was a lot of it in The Irishman. They didn't tell me it was all done by Joe Pesci. De Niro has become something of a parody of himself. He's doing the same part over and over. His early work was brilliant, but lately? Meh.
