He has become a Has Been Actor who takes movie roles to continue funding his lifestyle and his ex-wife’s huge alimony payments, she gets $100,000 a month prepaid to her Amex Card for her to spend and who knows what else.

I can’t think of the last really good film he was in, maybe Ronin and Heat. I once saw 15 minutes of Dirty Grandpa and had to turn it off it was so disgusting.

I didn’t think much of the Irishman either, the only good actor in that film was Joe Pesci and he should have had an Oscar Nomination for that role.

That taking any old movie role primarily to pay alimony, sounds like the last 15 years of Marlon Brando’s career.
In Marlon’s case, he needed to keep paying for his private island plus child support.

I remember Heat and thought it was goofy.

I have absolutely no positive recollections of De Niro where I can say that I’m disappointed in who’s he revealed himself to be. On the hand, ‘Jack Ryan’ proved to be a disappointment, but Baldwin’s pathetic descent was in plain sight over the course of decades.

Ronin was the last thing he was good in.

He’s a severe TDS suffer these days.

Not to defend the puke that is the person Robert DeNiro, but the “actor” Robert DeNiro is/was one of/if not the BEST male actor of all times!

Ronin, Heat, 15 Minutes, Cape Fear, Goodfellas, The Deer Hunter, Stanley and Iris, Casino, Cop Land.

Enough for you?

I left out the comedies as I HATE comedies, so I never watch them, even if DeNiro is in them.
