I enjoyed it too. Maybe not as much as the show which I loved from the very first episode. I am one of the few who actually really liked the ending. What’s it like to live knowing any open door is a potential hit? I needed 86 episodes (okay maybe they could have done it in 75) to actually understand the geese panic attack fully. I actually kind of felt the panic for him in that last scene. In this movie, Vera Farmiga was fantastic. Corey Stoll too. And little Gandolfini has so much of his dad in him. I liked the Dickie story but it wasn’t anywhere as fucked up as Tony’s family story from the series. Perhaps the Junior interplay could have been stronger to meet the burden of that deep knowledge of Junior from the show. Dickie just seemed a bit shallow compared to the rest of the characters. Even Christopher as a baby has seasons of character development. Dickie seemed like an awesome guest star in an episode. It’s not a huge gripe. I really did enjoy it [Reply]

I didn't get that at all. Maybe because I don't give a shit about social commentary and people of all colors were equally despicable in the movie? Name one character that was a hero. I surely cannot. [Reply]
It's getting shit on big time on Reddit. I enjoyed it for the most part, but can Hollywood produce one single script that doesn't revolve around how evil white people are? It's getting tiresome. [Reply]

Just one?
But perhaps you mean something new and not a long standing character?
But Janx... that is a Ryan Reynolds comedy, of course it won't be about how evil white people are!
Ok Janx... I'm not talking about super hero movies. I'm talking about real films.

I think I get you. You are done seeing white people portrayed in a negative light and would like to see them portrayed in a positive light and standing up for the little guy.
If you want to see white people being kind to others and being uplifted as good people:
