The Audition

You've got the greatest actors and one of the best directors in a short film. What could be better than that?

I don't want to give away the plot, but the actors are competing for a role in one of Scorsese's new movies. He interviews all of them separately at a hotel in Asia.

It's funny, cool. I don't see why they had to make this short film, but it's a nice little watch one random day.

5 stars

This shirt is a history that we might not see again. De Niro and DiCaprio with Scorsese, and plus Pitt?! I only can say wow, what a genius idea. The conversations between De Niro and DiCaprio are priceless and so funny. I think this movie should've been rated 10, no kidding. People who understand the cinematography, definitely will appreciate this 15mins comedy. I've watched 3 times already, I think I can watch it everyday:). Happy watching!

Just seems pointless, lack lustre and If he wasn't going to make something remotely cool, he should have just left it alone and put the effort into getting this Irishman project happening

It's good to see Scorsese team up with his two favorite actors DiCaprio and DeNero for the first time. Yes, it's only a 15 min short movie but it's still entertaining Thank you

A very strange short film/15-minute-long hotel advertisement starring Martin Scorsese's two favourite lead actors (and Scorsese himself), I guess The Audition is fun for the novelty of seeing De Niro and DiCaprio together, and for providing a little entertainment value, but that's about it. It's otherwise ridiculous that this apparently cost $70 million to make - I guess everyone involved was seen as worth it, from a business perspective, but I wish they'd done a little more with what it was about.

De Niro and DiCaprio both want a part in Scorsese's latest movie. They squabble over it for a while, and then while there is a punchline, it's really not funny enough. I wish it ended with a bit more of a bang, to kind of make the whole thing feel worth it.

Feels ridiculous to even review a commercial, but it's a long and expensive one, and you could generously call it a short film. I wish it either looked a little nicer or was written a little better (even the screenwriter here is a big name - it's Terence Winter, who did the screenplay for The Wolf of Wall Street, wrote for The Sopranos, and created Boardwalk Empire).
