My fave actor...
For any fan on here... show your love and appreciation for a real screen LEGEND
One thing you can't knock this man for is that no matter how ? a film is... he always brings a crazy energy with his performances
He'll always be compared to his other Italian friend, Bob (I personally think Al outshined him in Heat)... but for me Al is a 'deeper' actor... even though with a smaller filmography than Bob
The Godfather Part II, Serpico, Scarface, Scent Of A Woman, Insomnia, Dog Day Afternoon, Carlito's Way, The Insider, The Devil's Advocate are among my favourite films of his and are some of the films with his best performances...
He has dropped another noteworthy performance in a TV film this year playing real life Jack Kevorkian, who helped terminally ill patients with suicide... trust me its another Oscar worthy performance.

I know that film word for word. Epic. I still wish they would've made a Godfather IV & followed through with how Sonny's son was suppose to complete ? up the family & everything Michael "tried" to build or combined that into the story arc of Godfather III -
Awesome actor. Definitely in my top 10.
He has a tendency to over-act sometimes, but he's one of the very few, if not the ONLY guy who makes it work. -
Definitely one of the best to ever do it. His work in the 70's is unmatched.
Problem is, he started playing the same characters and became a caricature of himself. Righteous ? was an embarrassment. -
Ya'll need to watch him in Merchant of Venice.....it pretty much cements him as a GOAT.

Agree. After the brilliance of Heat, both of 'em ruined that legacy and any film with Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson in it automatically becomes poison -
Unintentional comedy king -
