Pacino vs Deniro

[masterdirector]

DeNiro seems to be the better overall actor for sure. But I still like Pacino better. Pacino is concerned with keeping the Actor's Studio running correctly, so I'm a little biased because of that. And I just plain like Pacino's intensity better.

DeNiro definitely plays roles against type more than Pacino. That's a big reason it at least seems that he's the better actor, which he might very well be. I'd be happy to cast either one in a film.

is there any actor who is more underrated then Don Cheadle? he's great...

[masterdirector]

Don Cheadle is not very underrated anymore. He's the 2nd most talked about black actor right now, behind Jamie Foxx. I wouldn't call that underrated.

Gary Cole, he's underrated. Jake Weber, that's underrated. Michael Rappaport is underrated too.

The more I think about the more I lean towards De Niro. I think they are both equally great but if I had to chose it would probably be De Niro...

Some movies missed that were good....

De Niro - The Untouchables, A Bronx Tale

Pacino - Insomnia

I think the other greats were mentioned.....

[masterdirector]

I didn't think The Untouchables was all that good. Average I thought. Same with Insomnia. Bronx Tale was good.

I liked De Niro in Sleepers. De Niro as a priest...interesting. And he ****ing...nevermind, I won't ruin it for those who haven't seen it.

Well Cheadle is still excellent any way you slice it.

Deniro but its close,

Raging Bull, Once upon a time in America and Godfather 2 are some of his awesome movies.


I liked Al Pacino's performance paticularly in Godfather 3 when he is crying after they kill his daughter, and I also like Al Pacino in Scent of a Woman.
