10 Movies Great Actors Should Be Ashamed Of

1. Al Pacino - Jack and Jill

al-pacino-jack-and-jill Al Pacino is in everybody's discussion regarding the greatest actors of all time. Classic roles such as Michael Corleone, Tony Montana and Frank Scorpio established him as one of the best actors in the world during the 70's and 80's, but ever since he has aged a little, the quality of his performances has dropped dramatically. The last decade has been just awful for the great actor and he has appeared in garbage such as Gigli, Righteous Kill and 88 Minutes, but Jack and Jill is by far the most appalling thing he has appeared in, and he should be rightfully ashamed. In the Adam Sandler 'comedy', Pacino seems to play a sort of exaggerated version of himself. That in itself could be a decent scenario for comedy, but the joke was in the trailer and the trailer was on television every other minute, so the only funny joke in the film was wasted in the trailer. Pacino actually seems to be giving it everything in the film, not something that could be said of some of his recent performances, but it's still depressing to see such a legendary actor in a film so dire.
