Here in Bobby Deerfield (1977), Pacino absolutely underwhelmed critics as the titular character. It holds a 29% on Rotten Tomatoes, and it didn’t exactly make waves at the box office. Thus, in spite of Pacino receiving a nomination for Best Actor in a Motion Picture — Drama at the Golden Globes, this is without a doubt the worst film on the list. I...
Off the bat, going from Bobby Deerfield at the top of the list to Scarecrow (1973) at number seven, this already marks the first leap in quality on the list. While the former had a 29% on Rotten Tomatoes, Scarecrow features a 76% rating — not the greatest score in itself, but its worth noting this entry’s current status as a cult classic. The film ...
This was Pacino’s first role of the decade, his second overall, and his first one in a starring role. And in The Panic in Needle Park(1971), that starring role was as a character called Bobby, a heroin addict — which the title of the film references with regard to Sherman Square in Upper West Manhattan, where addicts hung out at the time. And for t...
His last performance of the decade, and his last Oscar nomination of the decade — like most of the others (which have obviously yet to be touched on), the award was for Best Actor. But as plenty of you probably remember, he came up short in the end. Here in …And Justice for All (1979), he plays a lawyer who you might remember for his featured scene...
He won the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Motion Picture — Drama here in Serpico (1973), and was nominated at the Oscars in the same category despite coming up short to Jack Lemmon for his role in Save the Tiger (1973). And his performance truly lives up to those accolades as perhaps the highlight of Serpico itself. Of course, the plot is also en...
Sure, this could be a surprising placement for many film fans, as both The Godfather Part II(1974) and its predecessor (more on that later) are both widely considered among the greatest films ever made. Some critics and fans alike may actually look at this sequel as the film of higher quality. And of course, Al Pacino reprises his role as Michael C...
From a modern perspective, this is perhaps the most underrated film on the list. It was definitely revered at the time of release, though. A heist film, Dog Day Afternoon (1975) was directed by Sidney Lumet, and featured Pacino in the starring role as Sonny Koufax. Alongside him was John Cazale, and the two played amateur thieves who hold up a loca...
Easily the most popular movie of the list, of the decade, and even Pacino’s career, this is a truly transcendental project that has been written home about ad nauseam for the past five straight decades. Of course, it was directed by Francis Ford Coppola, and adapted by him and Mario Puzo from the latter’s novel of the same name. Much like its succe...
