Epic thriller that packs a punch.

Rating: 9/10 (27 August 2017)

Finally we got to see two of the greatest actors of our generation together, and it didn't disappoint. De Niro and Pacino play similar characters on opposite sides of the law, who won't hesitate to kill the other should the opportunity arise. The scene in the coffee shop was perfect, a face off between the two stars which worked as they were sworn enemies. The plot, although simple, was thought provoking and managed to avoid most of the clichÃ©s associated with this film genre. De Niro and Pacino, although they don't share much screen time, are on top form and deliver brilliant performances. Likewise the rest of the cast are excellent. The shootouts and chases were some of the best I've seen in movies and looked genuinely authentic. This movie is a brilliant crime thriller and a must own, it doesn't disappoint, watch and enjoy one of the most iconic face offs in cinema history.
