Mediocre film with great acting

joanwweiiiii - imdb.com
It is what you would expect from Al Pacino and Robert De Niro. They've been doing these kind of roles for the past 30 years of their acting life. Applause, but no surprise there. The film itself was not a blast.... Full review
Does this movie mark the beginning of the end of the careers of two Hollywood legends? Are they finished as major Hollywood stars? Is this the best that Hollywood can offer them? If it is then let us conduct a requiem... Full review
Righteous Kill is one of those films that a lot of people have just been looking forward too because it has two of the greatest actors of our generation, Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino. I must add how I love in... Full review

Most people (including yours truly) are anxious to see this film cause its been 13 years since the two screen legends have appeared in the same movie. First and Foremost the movie delivers on the hype. Deniro is there and Pacino... Full review
Flaccid, predictable, shallow, boring

Mihnea the Pitbull - imdb.com
Shameful. So many people are wondering, on this thread, WHY do some great actors, as Pacino and De Niro, accept such compromises. I must confess that today, at the press viewing, most of my colleagues, the best movie critics from Romania,... Full review

This film has a lot of problem, but the great performances of its stars still make it worth seeing at the theater. The twist was way too predictable (I had it solved half an hour in, and I'm usually unable to... Full review
DeNiro and Pacino are great together

DarkKnight35 - imdb.com
Right off the bat, I must say that 'Righteous Kill' is not an amazing movie with a great story. It is a B-movie with a good cast and good acting, the story is satisfactory. Obviously, this movie stars two of the... Full review

Greetings again from the darkness. Yes, it is cool to see Deniro and Pacino on screen together again and it's inexcusable that it didn't happen a few more times over the years. But cool casting alone does not make a movie.... Full review
Good Acting, Very Weak Script

Lechuguilla - imdb.com
Turk (Robert De Niro) and Rooster (Al Pacino) are longtime NYC police partners, in this Jon Avnet thriller that has them trying to stop an unknown serial killer, a person who leaves a poem at the scene of each crime. Victims... Full review
A sort of guilty pleasure, by no means bad.

FINALLY! DeNiro! Pacino! Together! For more than one scene! I couldn't wait. I'm also happy to say that, while the film won't be winning any Oscars, it isn't bad by any means, and is certainly an improvement over Pacino and director... Full review
