Flawless!
This film has everything made me laugh out loud in some scenes and cry in others, De Niro and Hoffman are superb and the rest of the cast are fantastic.

Robert De Niro vs. Al Pacino
- 22 Sep 2008
This week, acting legends Robert De Niro and Al Pacino square off in the cop thriller Righteous Kill. It's the third time they've shared a credit, although in The Godfather Part II they were never on screen at the same time (De Niro played Don Vito, Michael's father, in flashbacks), and in Heat, their characters only met once, in the famous coffeeshop scene.
