The doctor diagnosed Liam Neeson’s character with CTE
Line of Events
An aging gangster tries to build a new relationship with his children and make amends for the mistakes of his past, but the criminal underworld won’t let him go willingly. Liam Neeson started boxing at age 9 and fought at an amateur level until he was 17. A definitive diagnosis of CTE can only be made by examining brain tissue after a person’s death.

This diagnosis should have been presumptive, as other options and possible treatments would have been explored. Thug: Were you born without a filter? Or was that something you had to work on?.
For his age, he’s done far worse for a decade
Lucky NumberWritten by Lene Lovich, Les Chappell (as Leslie Chappell)Performed by Lene LovichLicensed with permission from Oval Music and Oval Sounds (PRS). This film is almost a cliche, a pleonasm, in the career of Liam Neeson. He is good in this story that reminds of some films from the seventies.
Liam Neeson is poignant here, no problem
This scheme of an aging hitman or gangster or cop, a character living his last moments on this earth, this scheme is not new, it has been told hundreds of times before, but that does not detract from the efficiency of this film. I like this film, this kind of story. Liam Neeson has made and will make more films like this in the future.
