Your favorite Al Pacino movies

Tools    





I'm gonna state the obvious and say that my favorites are the first Godfather films. Even though it always comes up in the conversation, I don't think he gets enough praise for it. Most people lean more towards Brando for the first one and De Niro for the second one, but I think Pacino is just spectacular in both. The subtlety with which he builds up this character and takes him through the motions of his development is just astonishing. Heck, even The Godfather Part III, which I think gets too much hate, has some excellent moments from him.


Other than that, I'll give some praise to his work in Insomnia and The Insider; two fairly "recent" films of his that I don't think get enough love.
