Mr Nails you seem to enjoy this type of movie.
Have you ever seen the film "Heat".
DeNiro and Pacino again plus a truly legendary gunfight(considered by some the greatest ever filmed).Really top notch Michael Mann.

[C-mos]

it looks pretty gooD:)

[mr. nails]

Have you ever seen the film "Heat".

yes, yes i have. the street shoot out in heat is just superb!

[Alessandro]

it seems good:)

[Septimus]

It looks great!

[mr. nails]

personally i thought this movie was a let down. didn't like the narrative feel this movie provided. i thought deniro & pacino did a good job just like they always do, but it seems just bland. they've did better. 5/10

[AzHrY]

very cool movie ,I watched HEAT also
Deniro and Al Pacino are very clever actors

[WITWICS]

Like a long law and order....

Good!

Sitting in the theater as that gunfight progressed, I actually started laughing.
I think there have been wars that were shorter and used less ordinance.
One of the most over the top film scenes ever.

It's been a long time since either Pacino or De Niro did anything but phone in performances that are more than just caricatures.
I might see Righteous Kill when it comes out on DVD but have little hope for it.

Laugh if you will but Michael Mann's style has always been orchestra rather than acoustic.
It isn't very personal but when it works (like in a couple of my favorite movies Last of the Mohicans and The Jericho Mile),it can be very emotional (and entertaining) none the less.

No argument here.

I think the most visceral gunfight in recent movies is in Children of Men when the army moves into the Bexhill refugee camp.
The street battles in Blood Diamond were effective as well.

Mann's work is too stylized for me.

Great to see Them Together Again. I would recommend seeing this movie.

I thought it was a good movie not great but they are getting old...lol

I liked the twist of the movie

[peat moss]

Terrible movie, I think I fell asleep on purpose .

ksamls,a x

[vpg8000]

OK but they under-utilized Deniro and Pacino horribly.

[iM32]

notfor me :/

[100%]

I have no clue what i would use both those actors for in one movie.
hmm,
Maybe as side role, as waiters or something.
or use the jcvd method, self reflective (but not together or why not) documentary style.
They are so overcharged with references it is difficult to use them.

[r3volut1onx]

verry good movie indeed

[Peanut]

That movie was far from great the ending caught me from surprise,
love it one of the best movies from 2008

[Robert24]
