Per cominciare: De Niro e Al Pacino . Il resto? Difficile giudicare. Il rischio (elevatissimo) era che lo spettatore una volta uscito dalle sale avrebbe faticato persino a ricordare il titolo della pellicola e probabilmente le aspettative sono state ampiamente confermate. Inevitabile fare dei paragoni col passato; Avnet (il regista del film) non è Sc orzese , nè De Palma , nè Coppola e paga (in parte) il prezzo di aver scelto come interpreti due stelle universali del cinema, già ampiamente affermatesi. Si fa sentire notevolmente anche la mancanza dell’indimenticato Ferruccio Amendola , storico doppiatore di both in the movies that count, and is' also the first time De Niro and Al Pacino find themselves side by side in the role of protagonists. Only Heat had met in a very short sequence opposite one another, and this has resulted in an increase exponentially waiting for Righteous Kill .
This should not represent an enormous benificio for the film? In fact two such appearances included at center stage, they become cumbersome and almost ampiatamente undermine a structure that fight bitterly to support at least that would not look too much, in fact, transformed into a variable crazy: formidable collections and attracting public and critics, but bad for your interest turned to the rest of the film. The result that emerges is a modern crime thriller controversial, hard-working and unpretentious, a script peppered with too insistent from the outset and ultimately predictable to the end. 
Even the overflowing experience and boundless acting ability of the two protagonists are able to sustain a film born most likely to rely almost entirely on its own two sacred myths and their simultaneous presence. In short, do not take it A Vnet : his work appears only as a confrontation between De Niro and Al Pacino , although the end is only the viewer to emerge victorious.
