Over the past 20 years it seems he no longer takes acting seriously & is basically in it just for the money. Although he appeared in brilliant movies in the first half of his career & has made a few good ones afterwards most of the movies he’s been in afterwards were closer to mediocrity than average. The last good/great movie i remember him being in was Silver Linings Playbook.You aren't the only one. The reviews were all mediocre so I didn't waste my time. You would think DeNiro would know a bad script when he reads one. It's not like he hasn't read a few. But maybe he was offered a ton of money and good working conditions for the shoot and wants his Grandkids to go to Harvard. He certainly hasn't slowed down with his schedule and is taking lots of work.
A miniseries i’ve been watching recently is “Paradise” which stars Sterling K. Brown who’s been excellent in everything he’s made. It’s a murder-mystery & I’m currently on episode 4.
