"Stand Up Guys". What a great film!

Al Pacino, Christopher Walken, and Alan Arkin are retired gangsters who reunite after Pacino gets out of prison after 28 years. Here's my review and a trailer:

I'd give it a 4 on a 1-5 scale. Well worth seeing.

Can't say too much without putting out spoilers but Pacino and Walken have the talent to have carried this flick all by themselves and made it a dark and gritty drama where one didn't know what was going to happen till the very end.
