Robert De Niro vs Al Pacino vs Jack Nicholson

[Gillie]

De Niro is phenomenal in "Heat" as is Pacino. Two heavyweights going toe to toe. Classic!

Always thought Cape Fear was his most underrated movie and role.

What makes you say it's his most underrated as he was nominated for an Oscar? lol.



Don't know who's the best but De Niro imo has made the best movies.

Easily bobby Deniro.

Taxi Driver
The Deer hunter
Godfather 2
Goodfellas
Raging Bull
Heat
Casino
Once upon a time in America
King of Comedy

His body of work is unrivaled. Of course the fact he was totally shot after heat and never made another good movie again, slightly ruins his ATG legacy

AL only really has:
Godfather 1/2
Scarface
Heat

I prefer Nicholson over Al tbh, but his body of work is pretty thin too.

The Shining
China Town

I meant who was the best in their prime, but the bolded is definitely true. They've been Roy Jonesing their legacies in recent years, it's sad to watch.

However, they have a chance to redeem themselves in 'The Irishman'. Scorsese, Dr Niro, Pacino, Pesci and Keitel in the same movie? I don't even entertain the thought the movie will suck, it HAS to be good. Well at least I hope it will be.

You what the sad part is?

It could still possibly suck.

I gotta go with Jack on this one. He plays crazy like nobody else but he doesn't have to, either. The guy has tons of levels.

Al and Bob are great for sure but in recent years, damn. Jack must have had a much better agent. Ha.

al pacino....scarface.. nuff said

And Carlitos way. They are neck and neck

[Chrismart]

Jack > Bobby > Al

[BoxingFan85]

Al Pacino was more versatile in his roles imo...

[A.K]

Dinero has a Long list of terrible performances and movies that people forget about.

He does way too many and as of recently all of them have been bout him being old so it’s not gonna be that great but he was the man in the 90s and early 2000s

De Niro started out strong when he was hungry. Last two decades he has been mailing it in. Hacky performances and cashing in on his name. Pacino remains an actor through and through. Still challenges himself. Still has that edge.
