Grumpy Old Cops

Ok,I'll cut straight to the chase-this is quite probably the worse film I have seen so far this year.De Niro AND Pacino playing a couple of veteran,maverick cops in a New York set thriller,this is going to be awesome right?Well,er,no actually wrong.Where to begin? A very poor script,two of the most tired performances either actor has ever given,a twist a chimp could telegraph fifteen minutes into proceedings,and a plot that the writers of Kojak would've rejected for being too far-fetched.The only reason I stuck with this and didn't walk out,was the fact that De Niro and Pacino have featured in some of the best films of the last 30 years.This is most definitely not one of them. It's painful watching these two screen acting heavyweights spout second rate TV movie dialogue,and looking like they only turned up for the paycheck.I never thought I'd say this about a film starring two of my all-time favourite actors,but here goes-AVOID.

Bad bad bad bad bad! seriously, it's W*nk! just look at all the crap DeNiro has been in recently and what the hell has Pacino done in the last 10 years? methinks some fanboy sent this to one of them who saw an opportunity for a couple of over the hill heavyweights to grab some easy cash. Great cast, awful script and even worse director, don't waste your time.
