what a treat

Rating: 8/10 (21 October 2003)

this movie had such an awesome story.
the movie has two kings in film: Robert De Niro and Al Pacino.
it was as if someone just had the idea after the 2nd Godfather to see how De Niro and Pacino could act with each other. the story has both of them acting separately, and then once things get comfy, they both meet up for a chat. their conversation in the film was what made it for me besides all the awesome shooting action in it. they just acting so well together. it was some real eye candy.
the movie goes for just under 3 hours, with the strangest angles. at times where you thought it would cut to such and such, either it didn't or it switched to something else that was awkward. The entire movie is made up of these strange angles that any other director besides Micheal Mann would use. it worked only because the entire movie was composed of these strange angles, creating a new way to see a film. it was cool, i bought it.
SEE IT, IT WAS GREAT with many side actors who boost the performace of the film as a whole to lead De Niro and Pacino to do their work as well as they do.
