along with de niro and nicholson, he is the best actor of his generation. although his recent movies have sucked balls, he still makes them watchable because of his presence and extraordinary acting

Possibly the greatest actor of all time in Western culture.
Has won only one Academy Award, the following list is the films he should have won an Oscar for:
The Godfather
Serpico
The Godfather Part II
Dog Day Afternoon
...And Justice for All
Scarface
Carlito's Way
Should have gotten a nom for The Devil's Advocate and Heat.
Now, the following is a list of actors who won instead of Pacino and their films:
Joel Grey for Cabaret ( Give me a break )
Jack Lemmon for Save The Tiger ( Stewie Griffin Laugh )
Art Carney for Harry and Tonto ( A man and his cat....WTF? )
Jack Nicholson for One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest ( understandable )
Dustin Hoffman for Kramer vs Kramer ( AHAHAHAHA, BS! )
Robert Duvall for Tender Mercies ( This beat Scarface...how? )
Tom Hanks for Philadelphia ( Right.....yeaaaaaah )
There's only one word to describe Pacino's lack of Academy Awards, Pure Hollywood Bullshit.

" Al Pacino Is The Greatest Actor Who Ever Lived! "
" Pacino kicks the crap out of everybody "
" Pacino has managed to perfect the role of an Honest Cop, a Gangster, a Lawyer with a conscience, a Drug Lord, A Theif and a Mafia Boss. For this, he deserves respect, a shit load of respect. "

first off i'd like to say pacino is the greatest of all time. I mean come one! You cant deney that statement! The Godfather, Te Godfather II, The Godfather III, Scareface, Heat, Any Given Sunday!!! I Love Robert De Niro, but he is no pacino. O and about Robert De Niro, His name is Robert De Niro not Bob de niro, give me a break "Kyle". I know bob is short for robert, but he is known as Robert De Niro, not Bob De Niro. Get your head on straight paizan. O and one last thing. I would like to point out that both Pacino and De Niro are Italian!!!

One of the greatest, along with Bob De Niro, actors of all time. His highlights include; The Godfather trilogy, Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon, Scarface, Glengarry Glen Ross, Heat etc. He has been nominated several times, but has one Best Actor for Scent of a Woman (Not his best performance).
"Hoo-ah!!" - Scent of a Woman

Al Pacino is my hero

A spaghetti sauce. Used in many italian recipes. Al Pacino is tasted best with an "F" bomb or AK-47s. Ocassionally found with facial wounds, illegal substances, screams, over-acting, and little friends. Can be seen in;
The Godfather Pt. 1 (cooking scene)
Goodfellas (Prison scene)
etc.
"You add a little salt, some sausages, and some wine keeps it from sticking, dis dat the other thing, then badaboom-badabing you add the Al Pacino. Put it with anything rigatone, raviolo, linguine, penne, oh foget about it.
