these two actors


Deserved much better. It was so badly produced. Big Mistake. Mammet is so over rated.

These two actors are the reason the film works so well. Some great speeches from mamet in this one and they are executed so beautifully by these 2 marvelous actors.

I hated much of his writing here. Also the use of Video, not his doing. Helen Mirren whom I have worked with was terrible with her accent. Pacino as usual chewed the scenery.

I think you're just being biased against Pacino, he gave a very subtle controlled performance but of course he was still magnetic as always. Like in the last scene of him in court where he expected to testify, and Mirren instead called the expert. I loved his performance there, it reminded me of his performance in TGF1 just before he shot Sollozzo and it focused on his excited and panicking eyes and face. No words, just sheer performance through his facial expression. I don't understand where he chewed scenery in this film.

You clearly have a limited exposure to Pacino's films.
