It's great. I watched it a few days ago.
It's a nice love letter to the genre, other Scorsese films, and his band of actors. If you're a film fan, the 3 hours goes by very fast. Pesci deserves the best supporting actor nod for playing Bufalino. He's wonderful in the part, the best of all three of the main actors, it's sad we may not see him like this again. Pacino plays with the role, and does a bit of scene chewing, but overall a great performance. My main criticism is that he's a little off physically compared to Hoffa, but that can't be helped.
Deniro is the weakest of the three, but still a great performance. You catch him doing some of the cliche "Deniroisms" in the film that might not of been there if this was made a decade or so ago. I also don't like him as an extended narrator, he's not horrible, he just isn't built for it. If you compare it to the narration by Liotta in Goodfellas, you see where it falls short.
My two main criticisms are that he might of let the actors have a little to much fun in the roles. A few scenes are played up too much for comic effect. And the film de-aging isn't quite there yet.
The de-aging works pretty good on Pesci and Pacino where they're only shaving a couple of decades and aren't trying to replace muscle, fat, etc.... But on Deniro, where they're pulling off 30-35 years, and trying to make him seem rough and tumble, you see it. Sometimes he looks like a old man with a fresh botox and "Just for Men" job.
You also see it in the way the guys move sometimes when they get up from chairs, etc.... There is one grocery store scene with Deniro where you really see it. I won't ruin it, but it will leave you
.
You do get used to it, so it won't ruin the film.
Really great entry into the Scorsese canon, and a nice way to see a lot of his main players go out. I give it an 8.5 - 10.

On a side note, I notice a few younger people can't sit through a 3 hour movie, so try this if you must -

You can chop it into a mini-series pretty easily.
