Casting Pacino as Hoffa was a travesty

Every time Pacino is on the screen it takes me a second or two to remind myself that his character is not one of the mobsters.


Al Pacino is one of those actors that simply plays himself in most of the roles I have seen him in, and this role was no different.


I have no idea what Hoffa sounded like, but I doubt he had that New York / Bronx accent of Pacino's (did he even try to change his normal accent?).
