I'm Sorry, but This Movie is Really Bad..

Rating: 3/10 (11 September 2010)

You people are either brainwashed, or just plain ignorant to what constitutes great cinema.. First of all, 3 hour bank heist epics should never be made, period..
Secondly, cut out every scene with a woman in it, save for the one with the stand in get away driver and his wife discussing the struggles of staying clean, and away from crime... The women are utterly useless to the overall story, and ruin the pace of the film..
Third... The "Waingro" storyline was laughable... If these guys are such "pros," then why are they trying to whack this guy in a very public Diner parking lot?... This, after making a scene in the diner, assuring dozens of witnesses..
And finally... The scene between Pacino and DeNiro... Completely forced, and doesn't further the story, at all (which is actually the point of scene construction... The telling of the story).. And not to be picky, but that would never happen in real life, either (which isn't such a big deal, until you compound it with all the other flaws in the movie)..
Overall, the most overrated movie of the 90's... Easily..
