Duel or duet?

Rating: Null/10 (16 January 2003)

It is very difficult to find a movie combining so well two great actors. Al Pacino and Robert de Niro. And the are acting very well, each one with its features. They make Val Kilmer seems only a novice learning with Hollywood Ph.Ds. The movie try to presents a realistic plot, considering that there are no exactly bad and good boys. The cop is not a perfect angel, and the thief show his heart. The private side of their lives is developed and emphasized in several moments to present this paradox. The action movies are nothing so tremendous, but they couldn't, because the peak of the movie are the main actors, that are in the same scene only near the end of the movie, something like a final contest of the masters.
