The Most Memorable Al Pacino Movies Throughout The Years
Al Pacino is undisputedly one of the greatest actors alive. You can argue about it, but in the end his catalog of movies speaks for itself. While his movies in recent years may not be up to par with his earlier roles, Al Pacino has been making quality films and has starred in a number of classics.
Here are what I consider to be Al Pacino's best movies of all time.
The first film that I will discuss is Dog Day Afternoon. While the Godfather may have put Al Pacino on the map, Dog Day Afternoon was one of the films that helped to cement him as a star. If you like films about unorganized bank robberies, then this is a must see.
A more recent film of his that I feel the need to mention is Any Given Sunday. Now I am not the biggest Oliver Stone fan, but I found his depiction of professional football to be very entertaining. Pacino's "Peace With Inches" speech has become one of the more famous monologues in recent memory.
Another great film starring this incredibly talented actor is Heat. Also starring Robert De Niro, this film about bank robberies and bombs is directed by Michael Mann, and was the first movie in which these two legends are in the same scene together.
While there have been films that try to recreate the magic that is Scarface, nothing has touched this iconic cult classic. It is hard to picture anyone else playing the part of Tony Montana the way that Pacino did and thank goodness they never decided to make a sequel with this movie like they did with Carlito's Way.
Finally, a movie that often goes over looked when talking about Al Pacino films is The Insider. I am not quite sure why, as this movie is as suspenseful as any. I believe it was nominated for best picture, and is a great Michael Mann/Pacino collaboration.
These are just some of the many films of Al Pacino that I felt the need to mention. There certainly are others, which may call for a folllowup article.
