Righteous Kill stars Al Pacino, Robert De Niro

The first film to give Pacino and De Niro significant screen time together – The Godfather Part II saw them in different time-lines while Heat gave them just a few minutes – it was almost inevitable this pot-boiler about a serial killer in the NYPD would be a let-down. But with direction from Jon Avnet as hackneyed as the obvious plot, it hardly inspires this dream pairing, who barely get out of third gear. If it also signifies these veterans are not the acting forces they once were, this still rankles as a missed opportunity.
