I voted for Al's portrayal of Tony Monatana. It is one of the most emulated character in film. Too many to choose from but he was really spectacular in Scarface (the accent, gestures, evil look, etc.). "Look at you now mang" and "Say hello to my little friend" are part or most peoples vocabulary, impersanation (comedy acts, sketches, interviews) or humorous take in life.

Well,

Serpico Frank Serpico - a brilliantly well played character that is a lot different from Pacino's usual, this is a rather quirky, juicy, honest, character, and done to absolute perfection. One of my favorite Pacino roles.

Dog Day Afternoon Sonny - all I say is that this is one of the best performances ever. That movie really left a big impact on me after I watched it, especially from the brilliant performance of Pacino (not to mention Cazale, of course).

Scarface Tony Montana - I never really liked Scarface but I can't deny Pacino's brilliance in this role, one of his best I'd say.

Sea Of Love Frank Keller - I haven't seen it, sorry. I've heard it's trashy but I'll take a look.

Scent Of A Woman Colonel Frank Slade - he deservedly won an Oscar for one of his greatest performances ever, as the blind colonel. His performance jumped out of the screen and affected me, for its sheer brilliance.

Carlito's Way Carlito Brigante - I've been meaning to see it...aah I'll get round to it

Heat Vincent Hanna - not one of his best, but pretty good.

Donnie Brasco Lefty Ruggerio - I haven't seen it for so long...

The Insider Lol Bergman - for a performance it was great, for a Pacino performance it wasn't much, but I personally believe that he didn't have THAT MUCH to work with.

Okay I narrow it down to:

  • Serpico
  • Dog Day Afternoon
  • Scarface
  • Scent Of A Woman

I narrow out Scarface, because of the fact I didn't like it much and I DO believe he has done better non-Godfather work. I am left with the other 3. I would PROBABLY narrow out Dog Day Afternoon, maybe because I feel the other 2 were SLIGHTLY juicier characters.
I am probably left with Scent Of A Woman and Serpico, and I would say...Scent Of A Woman. But after seeing what Pacino is capable you see he has no limits.

One of the greatest actors the world has ever seen.

Oh Revolution that was crap. Uhh what do you consider the worst Pacino movie (add in DeNiro too, if you want, I'm just wondering...)?

I've only seen Al Pachino in 3 non-godfather films (Carlito's Way, dog day afternoon, and Serpico) but of these three I think he was better in Dog Day Afternoon but I do think he is an incredibly versatile actor with tremendous talent for adapting to playing completely different characters.
By the way, has INSOMNIA been released in America yet? has anybody seen it?
Its out this friday in Ireland and Im going to see it on Saturday.

I would have to go with Donnie Brasco first then Scarface. I LOOOVed Pacino in Scarface, but at certain times it was just a little over the top. With Donnie Brasco, you take this guy who is a lifelong killer, a terminal "bad guy" and Pacino makes you feel sorry for him, and he makes you care about him.

When I watch Scarface, I don't see Al Pacino the actor, I just see Tony Montana and get sucked into the story all the way. I like almost all of his characters but I voted for Tony...

Wiseguy, it's good to see someone else likes Sea of Love. Not up to the calibur of his other films, more just an entertaining rental but I really enjoy it! He and Ellen Barkin have great chemistry!

Who's Al Pachino?

But in any event, yes, Insomnia has been out for some time now here in the States. I thought it was pretty good - nothing earth shattering, but good enough for premium cable (like HBO).

goddaughter - really - you gotta watch more Pacino flicks!! OMG... kids these days!

You don't know who is Al Pacino until you see 'Scarface'.
I thought I knew him before I saw Scarface.Boy,was I wrong....
Scarface is a school of acting,and Pacino is the principal.
This is not a movie,it's a piece of art.
The Mona Lisa should be replaced by this film!

Hi,
My favorite was Carlito Brigante. In Dog day Afternoon the John Cazale character of Sal wasn't gay. He was a psychopath. It was the other guy who leaves when the robbery starts.

Donnie Brasco all the way.
