    We rented this movie today and it was awesome! It had so many abrupt twist and turns I think I have whiplash! Al Pacino was a treat as usual and the new young actor (Colin Farrel) was exceptional. Never a dull moment and keeps you guessing. Remember...NOTHING is what it seems to be

    I rented this movie on Tuesday and it was WELL worth the money.

    Al Pacino delivers yet another masterful performance. (is there ever a role in which he is NOT exceptional?)

    I was also impressed with the up-and-coming Colin Farell. He delivered an excellent performance as well.

    RubyTuesday is right. There are an endless array of plot twists in this film.

    SPOILER ALERT:

    SCROLL DOWN

    This is one of the few roles where Al Pacino actually plays the bad guy.You do not find out he is the mastermind of the evil plot until the VERY end of the film, but this is in the last 10 minutes where Pacino gives an amazing performance. The last ten minutes make the entire film worthwhile.

    I liked the movie but was not too impressed by Al Pacino's performance. The ending part reminded me too much of "Dog Day Afternoon." Been there, done that.

    Al Pacino has got to be one of the greatest, if not greatest actors ever.

    Aztec...LOL!! I still haven't figured out The Matrix!!

    Reborn...He is a master at his art..indeed!

    Soledad...I'm curious ...what was the last movie you saw that you really liked alot?

    DJ.....Let me know what you think.

    Freedom....He definatley ranks at the top...IMHO.

    I can't think of the name of a movie he was in with Michelle Pfieffer....He was a cook and she was a waitress ...anyway I fell head over heals in love with him.

    That movie is definately in my top ten for movies within the past 5 years. I really enjoyed it and I love Collin Ferrel as an actor. Al Pacino is damn good too of course.
