I'm sure he will do fine. However, when I think of Pacino, it is hard for me to see him in a role like this. I can't quite explain it.

He does well in mostly everything. I knew it was a matter of time before this happened and wonder what people's feelings are about this. One part of me is glad that this will bring the story back and remind people how standing by while heinous acts take place is reprehensible, but also the fact that it's a hollywood movie cheapens it too.

A larger budget documentary would fit better for me, but most of those are simply painful to watch.

I guess Godfather Part III was his last hurrah, and even that movie wasn't exactly great.

I did like him in Ocean's 13.

The voice of Joe Pa was just as memorable as the face of Joe Pa for Penn State fans so if Pacino can't do the voice it may not be that great.

Sure they look alike but I picture Pacino a little too tough for this character.

I do not think this is a good move for Pacino. Do not think this will help his career. Hey, but what do I know

Scarface is still one of the all time top 5 favorites in my book. He just can't top that one imo. Not in my eyes.

Pesci would make a.better.Joe Pa. But in all seriousness, what's the point of making this movie? Typical Tinseltown garbage.
