Bob in Miami

Excellent movie. The Blu Ray High Definition make you feel that you are in the movies. December 27, 2008

What a great remake this movie would be

I was a running in diapers when this awesome movie played on "The Movie Channel". My older brothers were cheering with the crowd when I stopped running and made them laugh by cheering with the tv screen too!( as they tell me)Anywho....I searched AMAZAON and discovered this title and had to get it to recall what the excitement was about.I watched this movie with a friend my age who was very sheltered growing up and he was blown away by the realistic pace of the movie.The cool New York street scenes and the incredilbly superb acting of Pacino and Sarandon.This transfer is clean and fun to watch especially if you like true crime stories.

"Attica! Attica! Remember Attica?"

AL Pacino is one of the greates actors of our time, and cetrainly ahs been the highlight of every film he's been in, even in this year's 88 Minutes. And so he outdoes himself once again in his best performance, which is the chronicle of a what-should-have-taken-ten-minutes bank robbery.

The movie is inspired by August 22nd 1972, the day two bank robbers had attempted to rob a bank. Sonny and Sal, two robbers, attempt to rob a bank in Manhattan, to get money for Sonny's lover's sex change operation. However, although all the employees agree not interfere with the robbery, it turns out there isn't much to steal, as most of the money has been picked up for the day. Things go from bad to worse when Sonny gets called by the police and is let know that every officer in New York is surrounding the bank.

Dog Day Afternoon is one of my all time favorite films- it is very simple, has very little violence in it and yet the performances are VERY real. Al Pacino gives his best performance here, and everyone definitely makes this film feel real for sure.

Overall, this is one of my favorite films and is truly a great classic- see it! December 1, 2008

One of the Greatest

This is one of the best movies I've ever seen and DVD quality picture only makes it more fun to watch. The interactive menus are nice, but I still go back to the movie. August 25, 2008
