Another Fan Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 The other Attica thread reminded me of him. Plus I started a favorite DeNiro movie thread a few weeks back so only fitting to start one on one of his "acting rivals" so to speak. The first two Godfather movies were good but I'll go with Dog Day Afternoon, Scarface, and And Justice For All. The last scene in the later mentioned movie makes it great. Warning: Spoilers!
/dev/null Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 The Godfather, Godfather II, and Scarface, of course Another pair of Pacino classics are Carlito's Way and Devil's Advocate
Bills4everNY Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 The Godfather. Donnie Brasco second choice.
row_33 Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 Godfather II easily, greatest movie ever made Scarface has its redeemable moments...
4merper4mer Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 (edited) Why not all of them? He basically plays the same character. Pass. Edited February 18, 2018 by 4merper4mer
BuffaloBill Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 The Godfather, hands down it is a classic and still very watchable today.
Gugny Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 Godfather II Godfather Scarface Dog Day Afternoon Serpico Sea of Love
145B4IDIE Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 another vote for Scent of a Women, with a participation award for Glengarry Glen Ross
Gugny Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 1 hour ago, Buffalo Barbarian said: Devils Advocate Pacino was great in that. But Keanu Reeves was so horrible that I couldn't list the movie. It would have been so much better with a better actor alongside Pacino.

It would have been so much better with a better actor alongside Pacino. I've always liked Reeves , thought he did fine, never really thought about him being bad in the movie I guess.
Doc Brown Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 Heat and Scarface were more entertaining....but I'll go with The Godfather.
Fadingpain Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 Godfather I and II have to be #1 (taken together as a whole, which is how I view those movies) Followed by Glengarry Glen Ross which is an amazing film with unbelievable writing and acting and Pacino's character in it is great. I used to love Scarface but it doesn't stand the test of time in my opinion. Brian De Palma is way over-rated.
