Pacino Vs. De Niro: The Showdown
Oct. 27 2008, Published 7:07 a.m. ET

Tomorrow's release of Righteous Kill once again gives us the opportunity to see these old pros go toe-to-toe in a gritty crime drama. Unfortunately, after a decade-plus of train wrecks, instead of Travis Bickle and Tony Montana, we're left with the stars of Meet the Fockers and SImone.
