this be a very well make film and meticulously direct and with some excellent character act that at time be deeply move for example the scene with the loyal but unsophisticated sidekick cop and his wife . the plot be convincingly work out and excite . the gangster character be particularly interesting and play an almost metaphysical role in the life of the hero . it make clear that the cop be just a rough and ready a the underworld character . a couple of slight reservation represent i find the end slightly one side a it celebrate the hero successful integration into the structure of the police and justice system and which collapse the ambiguity of the police character which have be maintain up to that point . also i find the lead female character somewhat weak represent little more than a catalyst for the salvation of the hero and all she seem to do be weep and swoon a the tough guy battle it out .
