Help Choose My Blind Buy!

Which DVD should I buy for this weekend?

On the waterfront?

Serpico?

Both?

I am a big fan of both Brando and Pacino so that doesn't help me out!

I'm not sure about the Serpico blind buy. Al Pacino's performence is excellent, and the movie is very good. However, it's a slower film with heavy emphasis on character development. In other words, a film like this wouldn't get released today. It's not a shoot 'em up action type movie. Don't go into this expecting The Godfather or Scarface. I would definately rent this movie first. You may really love it, or just go "meh, good performance but very dry and boring." I am by no means saying this movie is bad, heck I have it in my DVD collection, but it's not for everybody.
