Deniro has range and is more versatile but NOBODY can play a gangster like Al Pacino..

Deniro is the better actor but Im more of an Al Pacino guy.. Scarface I can watch over and over again and never get tired. Dam I love Scarface.

Pacino is a genius at portraying a mutli dimensional bad guy. In most of his movies where he played a villain, you couldnt help but to feel sorry for the guy in some way because he always had a good reason for what he did.. Even though he played a lot of Villain roles, he was very good at showing the human side as the antagonist and i love him for it.. He's the type of bad guy you want to root for.

His mannerism and his facial expressions are fuckin priceless man..

Great thread btw..

Its like comparing a Ferrari to a Lamborghini, both are perfection it just depends on preference, out of all the great roles Deniro put on he never went as far out of character as Pacino did with Tony Montana.
