Very tense old fashioned thriller,with some of the greatest actors
Superior action/drama with magnificently staged action set-pieces, impeccable acting and mostly terrific dialogue. Directed with restraint, the influence on Nolan's The Dark Knight is clear, and the central scene with de Niro and Paccino in the coffee shop is a joy to behold.
Great to see Pacino and De Niro in the same film (even if they don't actually share the screen that much). It's about 30–40 minutes too long, but makes up for it with the epic 15 minute gun fight in the third act. Keep an eye out for Val Kilmer's tennis ball sized boil thingy on his left arm. Every time you see it, do a shot!
