incredible cast across the board. every actor just feels perfect for who they’re playing. de niro is unreal in this, obsessive and calculated, trying to control everything while it’s all slowly slipping out of his hands anyway. pesci is pure paranoia and violence, just unpredictable every time he’s on screen, and sharon stone gave one of the most frustrating performances i’ve ever watched in the best way, genuinely never been that mad at a character.
it all just builds into this constant pressure where nothing ever feels stable and you can feel it getting worse as it goes on.
