I know I'm in the super duper minority about this, but the whole "great arse" line I thought was really unfitting and forced, and frankly took me out of the immersion of the movie. It just didn't fit with the scene or honestly make a whole lot of sense. I felt it was awkward and was more of a "oh this is an Al Pacino adlib where he takes over a scene by vastly over acting and sticking out like a sore thumb, we got to keep this in."

I don’t think anyone really thinks highly of that line or scene. It’s mostly played or referenced as a joke because of how over the top it is

Pacino himself has said that he was flying super high on cocaine during that scene
