Thanks for the compliment Facebook Annie, it is greatly appreciated…..and thanks for reading and commenting.
I just re-watched The Godfather and The Godfather Part II this past weekend and was again blown away by Pacino’s performances. Two of my other favorites are Donnie Brasco and Insomnia. The Gotti movie sounds promising.
Very cool…thanks for the update
Great page, and actor! Pacino rocks as Godfather, and Scarface! Thanks for sharing friend!
Thanks for reading my Pacino page….Pacino is awesome in the movies you mentioned…..I think even if he is 74…Pacino has a few great performances left in him….thanks for commenting.
Great page! I actually am a Pacino fan. But, I see there are a few of his films I’ve missed. What I like about him: He does some great movies and he has a real appeal. There are lots of popular Italian-American actors, but Al Pacino is the most attractive of all the big names. He’s good at playing good-guy characters and sympathetic bad-guys. My favorite Pacino movies are: Dog Day Afternoon; Serpico; Scarface; …And Justice for All and The Devil’s Advocate.
I agree AngelaKaelin he is one of the greats….anybody that can maintain a movie career for 40 years has to have a serious amount of talent. Your list of favorite Pacino movies is a great list….and I am glad to see someone other than me thought the Devil’s Advocate was enjoyable….I like Pacino as the devil….and I even thought Keanu Reeves did a surprisingly solid job as well…thanks for the comments
Al is the man, he is the great in Godfather movies, and aweseome in Sacrface. I look forward to see his next gangsta movie.
Hey Major Hill….Pacino has made a huge amount of gangster movies….and Gotti:Three Generations will follow that path….the director also directed Bugsy(more gangsters)….so this one should be pretty good…..and long ways to go before that one reaches the theaters…..people seem to know about this movie already….the power of Lindsay Lohen….thanks for reading the page.
