Jack Lemmon & Pacino performances are about equal.

Pacino's avante garde line readings are what make the movie:

'HWHAT. Are you GOING. To DO. About it -- assHOLE!'

Point is you had Pacino, Hackman and Nicholson in supporting roles together with any other member of the Glengarry ensemble cast who could have won the award in any other year.
