Martin Scorsese has a special request for any of you who decide to watch his latest mob-era masterpiece, the 3.5-hour-long The Irishman which debuted on Netflix last week: Please, the director pleaded with film critic Peter Travers during his YouTube show Popcorn with Peter Travers, whatever you do —
Don’t watch it on an iPhone.
“An iPad, a big iPad, maybe,” Scorsese continued. “In a funny way, I think I made it to cover all the bases in terms of how you could watch this picture. Ideally, I’d like you to go to a theater, look at it on a big screen from beginning to end. And I know, it’s long — you gotta get up, you gotta go to the bathroom, that sort of thing, I get it.” Does he get it, though? Because some viewers aren’t just getting up because they think the film is over-long. Some, like one particular user who reached out to Netflix on Twitter, think the movie is just … boring.
