Formulaic and as you said way too long, but even so to me, if there was an interesting character in the movie, it was Pacino's portrayal of Hoffa. It seemed to outshine Deniro's portrayal of the main character. There were things I liked about the movie like the attempt to explain what happened to Hoffa and the explanation for the Bay of Pigs fiasco, but other things seemed pretty incredulous. Deniro's character picks up Italian while participating in the Anzio invasion? Deniro offs Hoffa while Hoffa's son waits in the car?
Not the worse movie I ever saw, but then again, I am not a very harsh critic. I seldom see a movie, I just have to quit before the end. I even watch movies in Finnish and Icelandic on Netflix.
