Scent of a Woman had the potential to really suck. Dumb storyline and the hideous casting of Chris O'Donnell. Chris O'Donnell's acting style seems to be "I'm going to try and be as white bread and annoying as possible." Al Pacino is what makes this movie fun and funny to watch. Pacino's Lt.Col. Frank Slade (Ret), is one of the most colorful characters that he has ever played and has a lot of fun with Frank's biting dialogue. The end scene is quite a fire breather. It's too bad that Pacino didn't have a good co-star to match his talent or at least come near it. Bottom Line: If you like Pacino, you'll love this.
