Yeah the older films are better. One of my faves is Scent of a Woman.

Yep, not sure if i've liked a film of theirs past the 90's. Not to take anything away from them though, both legends.

You cant choose between these two. Its like choosing between a Bentley and a Rolls Royce. Both are among the best of all time.

Tough call, but Pacino edges it for roles like Michael Corleone, Serpico and Sonny Wortzik.

Don't think it's them that has got worse, think it's just their choice in films. They usually give good performances in them but they are just **** films.. Pacino is working on a couple that sound quite good now though.

I'd say Pacino is slightly the better actor but I've always liked De Niro more for some reason.
