Don't understand all the hate?

If your a Walken or Pacino fan, you have to LOVE this movie. I know I do, wish De Niro was cast instead of Arkin and it would have been one of my favorites.....

I must disagree. I love Arkin in everything he does! Well, mostly everything!

While I am a huge fan of DeNiro, and have been blessed in seeing the two films with DeNiro and Pacino together....Arkin is fabulous as well. His quick wit and one liners have always had me smiling.

Arkin did great. Don't think De Niro could have played the role as well.

I enjoyed the film and am surprised at the level of negative comments. Gave it 7/10.

Me too. I gave it 8/10.

I think because of the caliber of actors, they expected gritty crime film and this isn't that. Just a simple film about aging cons.

I think a 6-6.5/10 rating is good.
