Who is the better actor?

[puff the magic dragon]

I think Di Nero and Pacino are 2 of the best "tough guy actors", but which one was the better overall
actor?

 

[MisterE]

De Niro is more versatile. Pacino is good, but he's always him.

 

[Hawker]

I vote De Niro. He allways does an amazing job with such a wide variety or rolls.

too subjective ...

Both have done some fantastic things ...

I voted "neither" with the key word above: "have".

When was the last time either one made a passable movie? 15 years? The recent movie they made together a few years ago was beyond bad.

DeNiro: I can't believe the guy from The Godfather and Good Fellows also made "Meet the Fockers" and follow-ups

Pacino: He seems to only be able to scream his lines in recent years.

I'm disappointed both of sunk to some real lows as they get older. Fade away with some grace, please.
