Scorsese just bored us by reheating OLIVER STONE's
Wall Street droppings. Now it's on to rehashing 'The Mission'
with chopsticks.

Meanwhile, DeNiro, whose career is also nowhere, is looking
like a dead ringer for soviet Globalist set up —STALIN.

Scorsese DOES have a feel for PSYCHOPATHS and MAFIA.

Scorsese —MIGHT—be the man to bring off the definitive STALIN!

The role of the older exiled priest has the potential to be of Brandin Apocalypse Now quality. I really was hoping De Niro or DDL would get the role.

Sucks Scorsese's passion project after more than a few flashy assignments has a cast of second and third bananas. At one time it was DDL, Benicio Del Toro, and Gael Garcia Bernal. No objections to Neeson, but the younger choices reek of actors with "heat behind them," but less than great chops.

I guess he's taking the role Daniel Day-Lewis was attached to for ages. Glad to see Neeson now getting those kinds of roles, he deserves it!

I'd also include the upcoming "A Walk Among the Tombstones" as a film where Liam Neeson can remind people that he is a great actor. In the novel Silence, two Jesuit priests (Garfield and Driver) head to Japan as both missionaries and to find out what happened to their mentor (Neeson). Rumors compound that he went native. Think Apocalypse Now native. Hopefully this represents a new part of Neeson's career.
