Best -
Godfather I & II
Heat
Dog Day Afternoon The Insider
Any Given Sunday Carlito's Way
Donnie Brasco
Insomnia Glengarry Glen Ross Serpico
Scarface
The Merchant of Venice
OK -
Godfather III Dick Tracy
Devil's Advocate - Like Pacino, but Keanu Reeve's acting makes it just OK
Worst -
Two for the Money Frankie and Johnny
...And Justice For All - Pacino's iconic line aside, the rest of the film is a slog Righteous Kill Revolution - it's as bad as you've heard and I see why Pacino took a four year break from films in the 80's

I agree with this but would push Devil's Advocate to "best" and add Jack and Jill as among the worst films made in the past 10 years.

I admit I haven't seen Devil's Advocate since it hit VHS, but I remember liking Pacino and feeling Reeves (who I like in the right roles like The Matrix and John Wick) was a bit out of his depth. I feel like someone like a young Matt Damon would have been better suited.
All I've seen of Jack and Jill is a clip of his Dunkachino parody. I'm guessing he doesn't have an actual big role in that film similar to Gigli.

Actually he is in in a lot. Like the second main person after the Adam Sandlers. But personally I think its one of the worst comedies I have ever seen. And its on my 100 worst. Its a film that you cringe at the jokes instead of laugh.

It sometimes reaches "so bad it's good" levels, which saves it from being completely awful. I actually think that Al Pacino is quite a bit of fun in it.
