He is a good actor but I've never liked him 😖

Really?! How come...
i think i might know what you mean...my uncle for example doesnt like Jack Nicholson...he thinks Jack is a good actor, its just his face....doesnt like him...😑

Its not his face but yeh basically I just dont like him. I dont know.

Al Pacino + Robert DeNiro's scene in "Heat."

Best. Scene. Ever.!!!!!

robert and deniro and al pacino were so awesome in heat. that was such a good movie. the movie had good music too.

I think its really boring 😖 Probably cos I expected so much. Great cast.

i can see how it might be boring if you werent really getting into the movie.

Yeah...i agree with that actually!
i loved the movie, but if you havent got into the movie, its bound to get boring.

Pacino is all talent, he has truly masterd the art of acting. There are few before him him who reached his stature of delivery, and and even few now. Infact you can count them on one hand. There will deffaintly never be another Al pacino, no one will come close to his brilliance of changing perceptions.He is also a cool guy who is anti hollywood, Anyone like this is alright in my book. My favorite movies of his are

Scent of a woman, Godfather series, Devils advocate, scarcrow and dog day afternoon

He won a Oscar for Scent Of A Woman - I hated that movie HooRah!
He was awesome in The Insider with Russell Crowe

My gripe with Pachino is at times he goes over the top, he over acts. As in The Recruit.

He's right up there with the best of the best though.

ya i didnt like The Recruit but i think that had a lot to do with colin farrell being in it

yeah he does it blaintly though. which kiks ass

I was into the movie. I loved the trailer, wanted to see in the cinema but it didnt came out close to me, so I waited till video which back then took ages. Finally saw it and well pretty much hated. Takes to long to get going 😖

I am bias though...i knew i was gonna like the film before seeing it....its again the Al Pacino factor....i think 😑

I understand the Al Pacino thing....I don't think there is a movie I have seen with him yet that I didn't like. I like Deniro also but he doesn't have the umph that Pacino gives me. Heat is a complicated movie and I agree it took awhile to get going, but it turned out pretty cool.

I myself LOVED Pacino in Donnie Brasco. I ached when he got it in the end. He makes you like him even though...

Yeah...that is so true!!!
In the Godfather, which is also my favourite film of all time, he was sooo amazing...and it was one fo his earlier films!
not many people like Devils Advocate, but the fact that Pacino was in it made it so good!
Its the Pacino factor.....if you say, Al PAcino is in thi film, it immidiately makes you think its a great movie....(ecxept for Gigli, but that wasnt 'his' movie, and the scenes that he had, he did brilliantly!)

I liked Pacino in Simone, The Recruit, and The Devil's Advocate. I think those are the only movies of his that I have seen. I need to watch Heat, though, because I like Deniro and Pacino. I would probably like that movie, too.

I think his best performance was in "scent of a woman". If anyone hasnt seen it, you're missing out big time.

Generally I think he is quite a brilliant actor. His screen presence awesome.
