Righteous Kill

March 22nd, 2009 · No Comments

De Niro. Pacino. Yawn.

I moaned and scoffed at the trailer for Righteous Kill, not knowing that, by some stroke of ignorance or poor judgment, the film was in our rental queue and would arrive in our mailbox two days later. I wish I would have just mailed it back. Whoever decided that it would be the best thing ever in the history of cinema to put these two together should have written a more original story. Better yet, someone should have had the foresight to realize that there is good reason why these two scenery chewers do not inhabit the same cinematic space. This film is painful. And boring. I’m going to block it from my memory out of whatever measure of respect I have for these two actors.righteouskill
