I agree with Turi. "Mobsters" was colorful, but wildly inaccurate and overwrought. I don't understand why the writer and director thought they had to monkey with the real history of Luciano, Siegel, Lansky and Schultz, since it was dramatic and colorful enough for any film. "Scent" was a splendid film, one of Pacino's best, a witty and creative tale.

Scent of a woman is amazing, but it wouldnt have been half the film it was without Pacino. He made that film. Without him it would be merely average. It is his best performance bar none

I've seen Mobsters one time only and I didn't think much of it, it was just an okay movie to fill in a couple hours. Scent of a Woman on the other hand, I love. It's one of my favourite movies and I watch it whenever I have time to.

Scent of a Woman was well made. Al Pacino won an Oscar for his brilliant (as always) performance. I think the Oscars had to make up for not giving him one in The Godfather films. And Francis commented that Al Pacino can't dance, hehehe.
Im glad 2 fellow pinoys are in the coolest BB on the Net. I might be going back to Manila by March or April. A huge "KAAAMUUUUSTAAAAA!!!" to you guys.
