It is a great story. Martin Scorsese’s Directing in The Irishman is on par with his best work, except in two regards; 1) He needed to cut (30 - 60 minutes) some of the scenes down or out to keep the pace moving. 2) He should’ve never let the Very aged and stiff Robert Dinero act In the younger aged Jack scenes, as it turns weird looking. A right-aged actor would have made this movie a five out of five, In my opinion.
