Nov 7 2007'Righteous Kill' Recreates 'Heat' With Old Guys
As seen with Sylvester Stallone pumping his decrepit frame into a muscled, steroid-filled, grunting mass to reprise roles in Rambo and Rocky Balboa, and with Harrison Ford proving that, with the proper medications and pulley arrangements, he can, in fact, still crack a whip in Indiana Jones, there's nothing an aging actor likes more than to show the world "I've still got it! (though it's now grossly wrinkled.)"
Now, desperate to reclaim the glory of Heat, Al Pacino and Robert De Niro are again sharing the screen in Righteous Kill, and sharing another private drink.
"You think we're too old to sit comfortably across from each other at a table? Wrong. Though our faces now look like loose rubber masks, here we are, just like in Heat! Remember?"
"What year is it, 1995? Might as well be, from the looks of us! Still got it!"

I think the comments in this article are a little harsh. Yes the actors in question are obviously older and more wrinkled, but so what? They can still act. And people still want to see them or they wouldn't be making these movies.
This culture's obsession with youth is getting old! Pun intended. As you get older you realize that people in their twenties may be cute, but God are they dumb! But it's a stupidity born of inexperience. Everyone gets old if they are lucky. The alternative is death. And like Indiana Jones says, "It's not the years, honey, it's the mileage."

Side note: Both shots contain Pacino, DeNiro, and Heinz 57. Coincidence? I think not.

I love them both, they're the best, but I think it's hilarious how long DeNiro's earlobe has become between those two movies! Look at it! It's like a rubber swing from the park!

These 2 will always be aces with me!
With the 'mileage' comes experience!
