For more than 50 years now, Al Pacino has remained one of the best and most exciting actors not just of his generation, but of all time. Though his breakout role as Michael Corleone in The Godfather gave him the chance to impress with a quietly intense performance, he eventually gained a reputation for hamming it up on screen, looking like he was having a blast, and in turn being a blast to watch.
Hoffa is shown to be a charismatic and somewhat larger-than-life figure, but he needs to be, given his passion is what draws others to him and his ferocity is what makes him an effective union leader. Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci turn in somewhat subtler performances, providing a nice contrast to Pacino; all three are great, and all give refreshingly different performances from the others, too.
Pacino plays a coach who’s faced with challenges in his life, given he’s getting older, and he’s finding his job to be increasingly difficult. He goes through a good deal emotionally, and Al Pacino gets to convey it all in his typically effective and oftentimes loud way. He doesn’t hold much back throughout Any Given Sunday, but as a few soon-to-be-mentioned films show, the man can very much go even bigger.
