Oh my word I watched this film last night and, while my expectations were low (from the 1 or 2 reviews that I read,) I was severely disappointed.
The only good actors in it are of course Deneer and Pcheeno, the rest are average at best. Even these 2 award winning actors pull out career low performances. The story line is simply DREADFUL. Without any action you've got to depend on the strength of the plot and characters and there is simply nothing there. At times you can't hear certain dialogue because of the lousy over-loud "dramatic" music, alternatively fifty fucking pence ruins the odd scene with his inability to strong together a coherent sentence.
Finally, and here's the spoiler so lookaway now - they COMPLETELY rip off the ending from Heat, which was a spectacular film. Complete with eerie flashing lights (trains instead of planes this time). But the twist is so outstandingly obvious and contrived that by this point you don't even care and just want the film to end and/or gouge out your own, De Niros and Pacinos eyes.
One of the worst film disappointments ever - 1/10
Ahem, alternatively - what film has pissed you off lately?

would it not be a plan perhaps to put a spoiler that's preceded by capital letters in the reply so that people can choose to look at it or not?

Who reads the body first? Anyway's I'm doing these people a favour. Not a significant spoiler anyway tbh.

and Rob D & AL P were about 20 years too old for the characters they were playing (hard talking, hard fighting sons of guns).
