ZERO DAY with Robert Deniro on Netflix
 
Relevant today?
Premonition for the near future?

Accurate representation of today?

pretty good government thriller

Personally I will not view any more films with him involved in the production. And I believe that I’m not in the minority.

I, too, am in this club.

Deniro is less than irrelevant.

Haven’t watched it yet but plan to.

so don't hate, nothing about politics, but I feel like he has only one note, a single character. not the great actor everyone says. I understand I am in the minority. to contrast the late Heath Ledger was great in roles.

I started watching it. Forced myself to get through 3 episodes. Not very good.

Maybe you haven't watched many De Niro films - as examples:
Taxi Driver
Awakenings
The Intern
Godfathers
Raging Bull
Meet the Parents
King of Comedy

How is that a "single character"?

I assume many of you are not going to watch his films because you don't like his politics. When are people not allowed to express their opinions? Who can? Sport figures, business people, people in any part of the entertainment industry - movies, tv, music. I suppose you allow people to express their opinions only if they are not made public or you agree with them..

He's a great actor. If you exclude all the actors who have expressed their opinions with which you disagree with you will miss out on some great performances. Your choice.

I agree. And I usually do not care about the personal lives of actors and actresses. Now if they support violence against others and then that very same person benefits from that bloodshed. That is another matter.

I won't watch it either. I'm too busy composing my weekly 5 major accomplishments.

So is Kevin Spacey, and I love watching Kevin Spacey act his parts. . .

I don't follow personal lives of actors / actresses to decide to watch a movie/show or not. . acting is about making believe you are someone you are not, and if you do a good job of it, and a really good job of it, you get paid well. . . all of them. So its make believe entertainment for me, without judgements about the characters, just like a football game. Is it the quarterback or the plays the coaches are calling. . . I can't tell the difference. .

But whatever. .

I thought the movie / show was eerily too similar to what's happening today in politics. . written/released prior to this calendar year, and the house members had the same beliefs as many in power do today. .

But whatever. .
