Al Pacino does a great job and it was fun seeing him back together with Robert DeNiro but ultimately this was just another routine cop movie, pretty average considering.They play partners of 30 years who should be ready for retirement, but aren't. Before they can hang up their badges, they are called in to investigate the murder of a notorious pimp, who appears to have ties to a case they solved years before. The similarities between the recent killings and their earlier case raise a nagging question: Did they put the wrong man behind bars? I will admit to not predicting the twist at the end (which was pretty cool and cleverly disguised) however bottom line these two screen legends were just too old for their roles. We needed 40 year old cops not 60+ year olds. As police detectives they should have or would have been retired. Heat is still a great movie though 04.11
... View MoreI'd heard bad things about RIGHTEOUS KILL, but how could any cop thriller teaming up two of the best actors of all time be all that bad? By the time it showed up on terrestrial TV, I was all ready to give it a sympathetic viewing if only for the pleasure of watching two former heavyweights back on-screen together.Sadly, what they said about RIGHTEOUS KILL turns out to be true: this is a piece of hokum, a badly-scripted and equally poorly-directed example of movie-making. It's so cheap and lacking in incident that the whole film seems to be taking place either in some dimly-lit warehouse or in a dimly-lit police station, and there's no style, no finesse or indeed energy injected into the proceedings at any point.The whole plot hangs on to a lame twist that's so glaringly obvious that you wonder how it got past studio bosses - do they really think audiences are this dim? Pacino and De Niro do their best with what they've got, but they do seem faintly embarrassed, as if they can tell this is no good and they're in a hurry to get it done and dusted as quickly as they can. A handful of interesting supporting actors (including Brian Dennehy) fail to provide inspiration, leaving this a lifeless dud of a film.
