A feature of the film is that it forms a peculiar view of history based on Charles Brandt's "The Irishman" as the original model. The tone of the film is relaxed and humorous. Everyone's actions seem to be reflected directly from the deepest part of the body to their actions, often repetitive and mechanical. This absence of the mind is a common atmosphere in film noir. Fixing the camera position to shoot Frank throwing his gun into the river after completing the mission again and again became the ultimate in this kind of mechanics.
All the details of "The Irishman" have maintained the consistent artistic standard of Martin Scorsese, and the performances of all the actors are also of textbook level. The more you look at it, the more you can see the pursuit of the various details of film art, rather than the eye-catching exaggeration that is popular in movies nowadays. However, the overall calm temperament of the film is indeed like a thick layer of ice, which seals all the undercurrents underneath. It is hard to say that this film is the most popular and outstanding work of Martin Scorsese in these years. Because the characters in the film are cold killers, the overall style is cold and simple.
"The Irishman" is a rock-cold masterpiece, a work that captures the audience from the first shot and does not let go at the end. Under the filter, it shows hot enthusiasm and outstanding masculinity, and presents a solemn, cold and silent perspective of the illegal underworld. The first hour of "The Irishman" is worth mentioning. After a period of serious, questioning silence, the film has a slow, immersive feeling, as if Martin Scorsese went back in time and led the audience to visit His old neighbor.
