Deniro is a great actor (although he has made some strange choices in roles -Fearless Leader..?). Pacino is great too. So far, it sounds like it will be good.

I, for one, am a fan of big movie stars joining for a project, and pretending to shoot each other. Maybe Deniro can kill Al this time.

Finally, De Niro and Pacino together for a full movie ... "Louis, this could be the start of a beautiful friendship.�

I think the draw and greatness of Heat was that they were only in two scenes together. The anticipation was a nice "outside the movie" subplot.

Hopefully, this project won't be the typical buddy cop movie where one guy is anal and the other is a hippy.

I just hope this isn't some kind of career summing movie where they play parodies of themselves as they seem to have done lately.

But yes, cool news! Just give us a good story and good dialogue!

Pacino and De Niro are both great actors, but have been past their prime for a while now. Neither has been in a movie lately deserving of their talent and presence, but hopefully this is the one. However, from the looks of the plot this film looks like drek. Two cops searching for a serial killer??? NO WAY!!! I have never seen that before!!! Maybe one will be a cop like Dirty Harry and the other will be by the books and one will die at the end. That would be so original. Sorry, but I had to say that sarcasm.

dreck (drk)
n. Slang
Trash, especially inferior merchandise.
[German, dirt, trash and Yiddish drek, excrement, both from Middle High German drec, from Old High German; see sker-3 in Indo-European roots.]

We're talking Pacino & DeNiro, not Van Damme and Seagal...

I said the plot looks like dreck. Not the actors or the talent attached to it.

the reson is easy they are not in there 30's or 40's for the better roles they are not leading men anymore. they go to deep, penn, remember these are really actor's trying to compete with tech blow up smash up blood & guts box office........... tracy, bogart, brando, burton, otoole, lancaste,r did not have to compete with the visual...... they had to be well wriiten & directed that made they acting seem easier pacino & deniro nicholson, hopkins, hoffman, are so great they take nothing scirpts horrid plots & turn them into a decent movie....
