You can't handle the shitty acting!

Watched Hoffa the other night. God does this movie suck. You know your movie sucks when Sylvester Stallone did a better version of it.
Typical transparent overacting by Nicholson and De Vito. All you need in this movie is Pacino screaming and DeNiro scowling and it'd be the perfect big-time actors movie shitfest.
And WTF is up with having De Vito play the thuggish henchman? You just can't take him seriously when he's intimidating people and shoving them around.
Also, this movies suffers from the classic Mamet I'm-a-tough-guy-so-I'll-repeat-myself-right-away syndrome. De Vito does it here. If you don't know what I'm talking about watch Heist. Classic shit. Nobody talks like that.
