Top 5 Best Al Pacino Movies

Now before I start this, I know I'll suffer the slings and arrows of not picking the obvious choice for number one by placing it second and the other obvious number one by placing it third. In my opinion Dog Day Afternoon is totally over looked as his best film. No, it wasn't an epic like Godfather Part II or did Pacino play an eccentric military man like Scent of a Woman. Instead Pacino played a common man who was put under extraordinary circumstances.

  1. Dog Day Afternoon
  2. Godfather: Part II
  3. Scent of a Woman
  4. Donnie Brasco
    -- I almost put this one at number one for the same reason Dog Day Afternoon is number one.
  5. Godfather

uh, ever hear of a little movie called "Scarface"? It should be either here or on the worst list--a glaring omission, dearest Bruce.
