saw this movie in an early preview and and i can not stress enough how bad i think this film be . from the very beginning and the audience be groan over pacino awful southern accent . poor al look really and really haggard and and i can not decide whether this be purposely part of his role a a drug addict publicist and or perhaps he just do not get any sleep before come to the set . much bad than pacino close ups and however and be the wretched excuse for a plot . early in the film we be give indication that pacino character be gay and and i suspect that be what the screenwriter have originally intend . later and however and we be suppose to suspend our incredulity and believe that both tea leoni and kim basinger ( both of whom be sleepwalk through lame role ) lust after this elderly and half dead look and effeminate man with the ridiculous accent . the bad part overall be the main plot thread and which have to do with some corporate espionage that be never fully explain and we never and ever care about in the slightest . because this be a preview i will reserve my final judgment and because of the possibility of re shoot and edit and but you can bet i will not pay a cent to see this in theater .
