Al Pacino and Christoper Walken playing shady characters in a film? I’m there. Stand Up Guys spotlights their seedy past and the evolution of their relationship to becoming best friends — it also shows the crossroads the pair now stands at: one is set to kill the other. But given their friendship, this is no easy task. The film stars three Academy Award winners (Pacino, Walken, and Alan Arkin), so it’s safe to assume their is at least some quality within this project. Hit the jump to check out the trailer.

Check it.

Stand Up Guys is set to hit theaters January 11, 2013.
