"Giving cinema respect", as recently supported by The Man, The Meme, The Legend himself should never translate to his audience sitting through 200 minutes of repetitive events led by a dull main character with only the slightest narrative through line to hang it all on. It’s then less about respect and more about a seasoned director becoming complacent. No matter how well your actors perform, or how good your crew is, a mediocre script will often lead to a forgetabble film

This is a mess. Despite the strength of their acting in early scenes, Gladstone and DiCaprio's characters become a serious problem. She's too inert and he's too stupid, too sublimely ambivalent. They're nowhere near credible. The result, for me, was that the hamfisted moralizing of the last two scenes felt completely unearned. Were those seriously tears in Scorsese's eyes? After a success like Silence,this was thoroughly disappointing. Overlong, self-serious, almost unwatchable.

They could, and should, have cut a FULL 90 minutes from this. There's no reason this needed to be anything longer than 2 hours. So many Leo & De Niro conspiring scenes, so many courtroom scenes, so many jail scenes, so many "sweaty in bed" scenes. Ugh. There's a really good movie in there somewhere.

I know I'm going to be largely alone in saying this, but I didn't particularly like this film. A lot of the positive reviews of this film focus very heavily on what this film is about, and I'll say this ... I wholeheartedly agree that this is a compelling narrative. I don't really agree that it's a compelling narrative well told by this film. In many ways, the film plays to me like an adaptation of a book by people too in love with the book to cut it down to a manageable size.

The length of this movie is not at all justified. Yes, the cinematography and some of the performances are great (they do a lot of the heavy lifting here), but the screenplay and editing definitely could have used a few more passes. The audience learns early on what is going to happen, and then everything just plays out so predictably. Very repetitive and self indulgent with little character development. Not entirely bad, but the whole thing is just overwrought and underwritten.

About America's evil and greed in the same way as Wolf of Wall Street or any of Marty's gangster films; but here, as in The Irishman, there is no veil of intelligence or cool over the monsters. They are stupid and somewhat unknowable, so all we are left with is the cold reality of their actions. Beautiful, brutal, austere and complexly emotional.

Despite feeling the length and wondering if it would have worked better as a TV Miniseries, I still feel this is a pretty solid piece of work from Martin Scorsese. Great performances from almost everybody except Brendan Fraser who felt very off in this. Really well shot and a solid story that is a pretty slow burn to get into. It kept me invested almost the whole time and developed well as a interesting piece of history.

Another Scorsese mammoth, though this one does not soar along like The Irishman or The Wolf of Wall Street. Rather, the pacing is deliberately slow to ensure the subject matter is given its proper treatment. And it's a haunting, gorgeous rumination on the flipside of evil being ignorance. Where evil cannot reach, stupidity will extend its arm. Unsettling parallels to our current day take deep root.

One of Scorsese’s best in a good while. It’s every bit as expertly made as you’d expect, with tight editing/sound, gritty music and production design that truly immerses you to the time, place and culture of the Osage. It is very long, but it I never once felt like a chore to watch. Great pacing, and the some very good performances, especially Lilly Gladstone. Infuriating in the right places but also well paced, respectful and very entertaining. One of the best, most important movies of the year

"killers" just can't redeem its 3.5 hour runtime. the scenes drag and falter, editing is tonally inconsistent and there's an eerie feeling that de niro is sort of phoning it in. this story deserved a lot better, but I'm afraid scorsese is a bit too old to handle a period piece nowadays.

As a pure film, Killers of The Flower Moon is technically one of the best movies Scorsese has ever done. The amount of polish and authentication it carries makes the reality of the story that much more interesting and emotionally investing. It tackles a lot of rattle inducing issues amongst history, and it’s never once enduring. This movie is a god damn funeral. However, its ferocious nature and display of dreary horror entrenched in the eyes of indigenous people, is very eye opening.

Technically brilliant, and while I don't buy Leo as a young veteran for a second if I actually think about it, Lily Gladstone is fantastic enough to make up for it. (Go watch Certain Women.) I do love how easy Scorsese makes it to almost buy the characters' self-deceptive bullshit. Could it have dug deeper? Does the FBI come out smelling of roses? Would an actual Native director have told this story this way? We can speculate. That is the business, after all.

A stirring apotheosis of Scorcese's vision of America and the craven, greedy psychopaths who inhabit it. For a 3.5 hour long movie, never felt too overwrought. Well paced, beautifully shot even as the camera lingers on casual acts of immense evil. One of the finest performances of DiCaprio's career playing one of the dumbest motherfuckers who ever lived.

Some of that usual Scorsese greatness can be felt here, but there's a stronger feeling of the film never finding its footing. This becomes quite repetitive, devoid of any tension, making the elongated run-time most unwelcome (unlike The Irishman, which had a less uniform structure of scenes). The final sequence is quite neat, but also makes you wonder what thematic purpose it has.

Surprisingly mediocre all in all. The cinematography, the acting,set design and overall production values are top notch, and the story deserves to be told. However, the narrative feels weirdly inconsistent and incoherent. At no point can I really pinpoint what this movie is really about, not because it does a great job at covering a number of themes but rather because it feels it's not focusing on anything. Also, you could cut 30-60 minutes and have the same film - if not even better.

It's technically engaging (the cinematography is lovely, the score effectively moody and momentum-building), and it's a compelling, important story that Marty obviously cares about (see the strange but pointed epilogue), but the telling feels off, with sharp Mollie quickly losing agency and screen time, leaving us confused as to her grace for and with nary a voice of rage (just the one tribal council scene) to counter lead Earnest, who while a patsy, is still portrayed way too sympathetically.

Collossal and beautiful. De Niro’s King Hale is as nasty of a movie villain as you’ll ever come across, but this is DiCaprio and Gladstones film, who are both superb. Some bits occasionally detached me from a world otherwise so carefully constructed - a miscast and terrible Brendan Fraser, some obviously constructed dramatic scenes of convenience and some slight lags in pacing. Still a fantastic achievement.

Amidst the crookery lies a Greek tragedy in how the Indian women endure their fate: they keep smiling and believing even as the corpses pile up around them. Why? It's this unanswered question that becomes the intriguing part of this history. Why do they keep marrying them? Why do they keep smiling? Why don't they stick to their own men? Why, why, why? To keep aswering this question made me feel just as I'm supposed to I guess: a negotiating, calculating Westerner.

Recently Scorsese’s protagonists are too stupid to know the difference between right and wrong – which makes for diluted tragedy, and rather describes a general depressed, removed feeling that the director has grown into. He filters a story of colonialism through the mechanisms of the mafia, and while he’s at it, takes this greedy world to the grave. Here is a staid replica of hell for people who are still alive.

Somewhat out of focus. It's very interesting to see this strange native american society and the vultures flying over it; Glandstone shines, her character always remaining enigmatic; De Niro plays the evil majestically; but most of the screentime goes to Di Caprio dumb character. They chose to focus on the love story more than the FBI investigation, but there is so much you can do to give depth to a dull character, while Gladstone is stuck in bed. There is little development after a while.

Dull characters that exhibit no reflection on the actions they commit make for absolutely dreadful cinema, often leaving you feeling ambiguous and uninterested in the end. KotFM falls into this trap.

But how does a murder not think about the acts he's doing? This movie could have been cut by 45 minutes

This would have benefited from a second viewing; there's so much material here to absorb, even though obviously they don't rush because look at the run time. Production-wise, it's a master class, including great performances; this might be Leo's best since The Revenant, and Lily Gladstone shines. And yet, I can't proclaim love for it. I like it, and recognize its areas of unquestionable brilliance, but I'm left indifferent to the perspective it takes and the story as it chooses to tell it.

All filmmaking accomplishments aside and of course there are plenty since it's Scorsese, it's exhausting and simply an annoying chore to experience the great director running a never-ending, 3.5 hour train of White Guilt into the viewer no matter how deserved. Where's the movie? The script is so monotone and repetitive, the characters so shallow, it becomes a predictable drag that feels as complacent as the Irishman did. Music 10x as loud as the dialog so the remote control never left my hand

My best movie of 2023. Scorcese shines a harsh light on (yet another) little known black mark of American history: the systematic murder/financial pillaging of the newly rich Osage Indians in Oklahoma. Every actor provides a tour-de-force performance and the 3 1/2 hours truly fly by as Scorcese dives deep into the terrible schemes. The third act arrival & justice of the nascent FBI feels rushed rushed following the care shown to the previous 2/3rds but still, a modern American classic. PSI: 86

So, if you have a story that you want to tell reaaalllllly badly, do a limited series my man, we are not in the 90’s. Although Scorsese doesn’t seem to age as a film maker, and this one is no exception, why did watch a 3.5 hour movie man? And why oh why, while you’re telling the story of a tribe, the focus is the white man? Really? Is his pain the real story here?

"Killers Of The Flower Moon" is a visually stunning western epic by Scorsese, with remarkable performances and captivating exploration of greed and power in American history. DiCaprio, Lily Gladstone, and Robert De Niro deliver immersive and authentic portrayals. The production design and score enhance the visuals and narrative. However, the film's lengthy runtime occasionally hinders pacing and momentum. Tighter editing could have better balanced character development and story progression.

I am hoping for at least one masterpiece every year. Count on Scorsese to land it. The setup is so good, the middle act(s) keep the water boiling, and the last hour erupts with surprises, consequences, and absurdities. And I am fully on board with every absurdity. Would you believe me if I told you, apart from Wolf, that it's perhaps Scorsese's funniest movie? I was watching alone hooting, hollering, laughing, and scoffing.

The road of a man who wants to be the best son for the best and most evil father, and who's in the end too wild and laden with guilt to be truly faithful even once to his wife, a lady embodiment of shame and justice. Maybe we are seeing here an "old-aged" Scorsese, focusing more on guilt and struggles of conscience than the pleasure of violence, which is no less genuine or affective, but might indeed mean the characters lose some of their purely impure irresistibility. Flawless filming still.

Good, but a bit long-winded, and ends in a bit of an abrupt and odd, though sobering, way. I still haven't decided if I like the ending or not, because it almost feels like an ending to a documentary, rather than a movie - but the movie on a whole sort of toes that line. Still, really well-done and acted by everyone involved (the Brendan Fraser appearance did take me out of it a bit). I could've done with showing more of characters other than DiCaprio's, but it seems that was the focus.

It takes some while to get immersed in the story, but the masterful directing combined with the horrifying history made this 3h+ movie still very intriguing.

Truly an epic. Scorcese's recent trend of discussing the sins of the past and their ability to be redeemed hits a high point and a grander scale with this film's discussing of indigenous American peoples and their suffering at the hands of capitalism and manifest destiny...and even our recounting of these stories in the media and art.

Scorsese is officially washed; this film is long and boring but it’s a good story about important topics. Acting is great, production and photography is flawless. Leo is a total mug to be getting played by Deniro, who is a cartoon caricature of evil. And yet, it’s so long and boring, but even with all the cgi owl scenes and extended ending it’s still watchable.

It justifies its length well enough but I ended up finding the framing kind of limited. The movie does a brilliant job of encapsulating the general heinousness of these murders and the film language is fantastic. But the story does not want to engage with anything outside of the scheme of the two lead characters and the supporting cast; particularly the Osage, are left a bit hollow in terms of how they relate to the grand scheme of what is something much grander than these two men.

Not really boring but I didn't find a single character to like, or to care about, and that's a bigger problem than any runtime. Those Indians were apparently too dumb to live. It was like watching a true crime slasher turning into a courtroom drama with The Whale cameo.

It's a Scorsese movie. You have corruption, banality of evil, strained romantic and fraternal relationships, great cinematography and Robert de Niro. You get what you paid for.

Scorsese turns to camera to shed an 'Iron Eyes Cody' tear and Wilford Brimley salutes from the diabetus ranch in the sky. It's a long 'un but the quality of storytelling is fixating, a confidently executed production that crucially nails the 'transport me to the past' aspect of period piecing (shout out to all the great character actors & old-timey-face extras) and fully indulges a story that deserved to be told.

I'm generally a fan of longer movies (my all-time favorite film is 7.5 hrs. long), but boy, did I feel the runtime with this one. The production quality is imposing and the directing is excellent, usual Scorsese. Perhaps the subject matter was not very similar to my taste (I loved The Irishman despite it being even longer).

overextended piece of shit. you have to be an obnoxious idiot to enjoy this junk in 2023, while being absolutely clueless on what's happening in the world. How can you even like this 3.5 hours of rage, injustice, betrayal and incredible stupidity multiplied by cruelness and lust for filthy money? disgusting garbage

Though it could have been shorter, I cannot fault its length because it's so consistently good. Aside from the stellar leads, there are interesting choices in supporting roles including Barry Corbin of Northern Exposure fame, who is older than Scorsese. A lazy soundtrack, the late Robbie Robertson's last, is the film's weakest link.

This is of course a great quality film, it is Scorsese after all. But way too long, as it tends to be the case lately with many films that seem to want to become "epic films". Loved the story and Lily Gladstone's performance, but DiCaprio was often overacting the role.

Scorsese's not really capable of making a truly bad film but this is decidedly mediocre especially when measured against his best work. I found it mostly dull, narratively frustrating and wildly overlong, but what irked me the most were the three main performances: DiCaprio's ape-like mugging was distracting, DeNiro's villain was too mustache-twirly, and Gladstone's wooden, monotone performance made my eyes glaze over, so even with some serious trimming I doubt I'd ever find this enjoyable

A bit distracting when Leo is making his face look like an ape for 80% of the movie. I some reservations on what this movie is really getting at, but it is just stellar filmmaking.

A very long movie with well known actors playing despicable people from history. The movie was very engaging and shocking. It was quite riveting at times. The characters were complicated and nuanced. Worth watching. The story was based on true events.

I guess choosing Ernest's angle to narrate the story didn't do well. The audience knows everything from the head start and nothing challenges that notion. The first trailer of the film had such a good rhythm, soundtrack and visuals that got me excited for a masterpiece. Such a shame, that trailer contained everything good about the film and left nothing for the 200 minutes drag!

I don't know what happened here, but this movie is unnecessary long and has no focus. Nothing is happening. No character development. Or story. Or mystery. Nothing. My advice would be: watch the first 10-30 minutes. Skip the next 2 hours. Watch the final 1h30m. The whole middle part (2 hours) is the same thing over and over again, so you can just pick up when the movie actually starts (the last 1h30m).

I find most of Scorsese’s work whelming but by no means bad. In fact, I can’t really fault this movie for anything. It is over three hours long but never drags, it’s got great leading men and woman, a sprawling cast with no weak links and a marvelously insidious score; Scorsese knows how to make em. It just doesn’t sit with me. What does sit is the portrayal of American evil as cold, ruthless pragmatism, so insipid as to be invisible to the perpetrators and fully enclosing for the victims.

It's an epic movie that reveals its epicness character at the beginning and then doesn't really bloom apart from amazing cinematography. But the whole thing it's just so sad it's hard to watch, which is presumably the intention. It drags a lot, there is no joy in more than 3 hours of this and would think very much before seeing it again. But definitely an interesting topic of the history and exploitation which I knew very little about.

Difficult one to rate because it has so many amazing actors and the 3 1/2 hours just flies by (it felt like just 2 1/2 hours for sure), also Leo is just amazing, no question. On the flipside, you find out what is really going on pretty quickly and then it just keeps happening again and again and again. We got the message, but maybe that is also what the movie is meant to do. Not only give the message, but also tell us again and again.

A laconic, unromantic portrait of the American frontier and the lengths that some white men traveled to help eradicate it. Like the Tulsa Massacre of 1921, the Reign of Terror in Osage country deserves more space in our cultural ledger. It starts in corruption and sickness and greed, and kind of ends there too, except for a coda driving home the dangers that await after the violence is done: erasure, sensationalism, mass ignorance.
