It is what you would expect from Al Pacino and Robert De Niro. They've been doing these kind of roles for the past 30 years of their acting life. Applause, but no surprise there.The film itself was not a blast. Totally predictable plot, stereotype good cop bad cop, drug dealers, bad neighborhood were huge minus to this movie. Lack of character development made the film implausible and some parts inconvicible no matter how great the acting was. Finally, the director's abuse of dramatic music without much happening throughout the film slowly eats away your patience.Six out of ten is what I will give, 3 from Al Pacino and 3 from Robert De Niro.

In New York, the veteran NYPD detectives and partners Turk (Robert De Niro) and Rooster (Al Pacino) chase a serial-killer that kills criminals, leaving a poem with the corpses. When Detectives Simon Perez (John Leguizamo) and Ted Riley (Donnie Wahlberg) join the investigation, they suspect that Turk is the killer."Righteous Kill" is probably the greatest disappointment I have had this year. The lame and mediocre screenplay and direction achieve the impossible, wasting Al Pacino and Robert De Niro together performing NYPD Detectives. It is incredible how a writer and a director can be so incompetent! My vote is five.Title (Brazil): "As Duas Faces da Lei" ("The Two Faces of the Law")
