Thank you CHD, I thought I was going to be skipped there.

It made me sad. I wrote a letter. The letter was ignored.:(

No problem, happy Saturday.

No, this is the pick one out of two very similar things that you would like to have but can't so make a decision like a man for the lulz game.

Scent of a woman was ruined by the deplorable chris o'donnell.

Jack Nicholson is still ahead of Pacino and De Niro.

i disagree , while i love jack and hes a legend , more than any other actor , jack has played himself in every film and is always over the top

The ending of Scent of a Woman was idiotic - a bunch of teachers deciding "Yeah! He's right! Snitches are dicks!"

Now, Kevin Spacey, there's an actor. Sometimes he does it by the numbers, but when he's good, he's good.

While it's true that Jack Nicholson doesnt actually act it can be said that Al Pacino overacts in practically movie that he has appeared. He also likes a bit of an oul shout.

Ally Dick · 22-08-2009 02:24PM

Al Pacino was in the top three actors of all time until Scent Of A Woman. From that role on, he saw fit to shout his way through every role. I doubt Lee Strasberg taught him to do that !

Loved Gil Jack Lemmon in Glengarry Glen Ross. Great ensemble cast although if you knew anyone who carried on like Pacino in real life you'd probably think they were an asshole.

I wouldn't say that.

About Schmidt vs
Easy Rider vs
A few good men vs
As good as it gets vs
Anger management.

OK he's Jack but they're all pretty different characters.

Gil Jack Lemmon's character is a legend.

Yes.
Character actor as far as i can see.

Love him in "Meet the Parents".
Doctor Bob or something like that. (?)

Love his reactions to Greg (Ben Stiller) when Greg accidentally smacks your one with the volleyball in the Volleyball scene and Greg's crazy driving in the Race home scene.
("Jesus Focker!").

Oh god what a terrible film. At least he had the sense not to make a sequel unlike De Niro and Analyze This/That and Meet the Parents/Fockers. Three of my favourite actors who have almost destroyed their credibility with their recent output. Pacino's reduced to shouting, Jack is just in dreadful films now and De Niro is happy to do 'comedy'.

That's some abuse.

The soundboard for that is great.
Used to great effect.

Just an example of the different characters he's played.
The others probably better demonstrate his range.

KerranJast · 22-08-2009 03:29PM

Great actor but he hasn't been in anything decent since "Any Given Sunday" and that was 10 years ago.

K-pax though.
Hard to forgive that.

Whenever I hear about a new Al Pacino movie I get the scent of something else.

If you're going to pick a bad Kevin Spacey movie, at least aim for something really horrible. Like Ordinary Decent Criminal.

El Siglo · 22-08-2009 03:53PM

Al Pacino, is pretty good, Any Given Sunday and The God Father Trilogy, but I would have to put Paul Newman at the top. Just an all around brilliant actor.
