Has anyone ever seen this Al Pacino film? John Forsythe plays the corrupt judge and Hank from Larry Sanders plays the lawyer that goes loopy. I haven't heard anyone else talking about it but I think it is one of Pacino's strongest performances, especially his speech at the end. A superb film.

No, this is one of the Pacino films when he was in his acting prime. It must have been late 70's or something. It's not one of the hollywood crapbusters like Any given sunday or The insider. It's in my opinion, one of the finest films ever, yet i never hear anyone else talking about it. Am i just too trendy for everyone or is it something else?

You are too trendy but the Insider is a good film. Insomnia was pretty crap though.

I've never heard of it, to be honest.
I thought The Insider was great though, I pretty much like anything with Pacino in.

Was it? I heard it was a return to form (of sorts). I think you're just slating it because it was critically acclaimed, but you wouldn't do something like that would you? I loved memento and I think it's by the same director. That's another classic film, memento. It quite literally changed the way I watched movies forever. I now watch them standing on my head.

No, no. It was very average.
Pacino's best was Scent of a Woman. "Wooo-haa!"

I watched The Score with very low expectations and quite enjoyed it. Nice twist at the end that should have been predictable but never occured to me.
I'm a bit slow you see :P
