Cody S @cody073001 Aug 26, 2026 I liked it, truly, but of all the films in Pacino’s filmography, this is one of his roles where I feel his dialogue feels forced, and it didn’t feel right. He did the best he could, and none of that is really on him, as it is the writer and director. Also, any active service members out there…. some of his jargon just doesn’t feel natural. I’m telling you, I don’t understand why none of these directors didn’t just consult with ONE person in uniform just to make the dialogue sound a bit better and less cringey. Overall, a pretty awesome movie…. I just don’t think I can put it up there in the “greatness” category, mainly because the dialogue feels so forced. Whereas in “GlenGarry GlennRoss” it didn’t feel that way at all, in fact, that may be my favorite Pacino role of all time.

I think the story needed a better climax. There was potential but I felt the movie tried to speed up events to make the audience believe that there is a strong bond or affiliation between the characters. I also just think the entire plot idea is dumb. It's sort of corny at times and it tries hard to have tear-jerker moments that just didn't move me. See more av 8 @anagha.vinay Apr 19, 2026 Hoo-ah! Lt. Col. Frank Slade can tell her soap and perfume from a whiff afar. Al Pacino plays the role of blind old Frank, who is just a lump of sugar beneath all his harsh blues. If you're tangled up, just tango on. It is a lengthy film, but it never fails to entertain throughout with his shenanigans. Never have I seen a more abonimably cherishable, miserable, blind motherf****r. The music was magic to my ears, and the acting was truly a sight for the sorest (or blindest) eyes. There is an extravagant amount of goof and beauty in this masterpiece. Most of the script was beyond brilliant—some lines especially touching—living long after the scenes have faded away. I personally feel that the finale was much too melodramatic, and I did not even really like all of the monologue (not his delivery). The day we stop looking, Charlie, is the day we die. This movie, Al Pacino, Chris O'Donnell, Frank and Charlie will now reign in my heart unbequeathed. See more Christian K @ckacar Mar 26, 2026 Can't believe what I just watched. Pacino achieved most acting and there are no challengers left. This movie is like an hour too long but the insanity of the Pacino performance carries you through it.
