i saw this on dvd ( it know a corrupt in this format ) and the blurb on the case really hype up how harvey keitel character frank be so much like the one he play bad lieutenant in this gritty and powerful police thriller . what the case didn ` t mention be that this be an old italian movie . how old be it theo . well when a character play music he doesn ` t put on the cd player and he pull out a big plastic pancake thing and put it on a sort of revolve hob where a sort of mechanical arm touch the pancake thingy cause music to be hear . you see my point about this be an old film . the dvd case give no clue this be a movie make 20 year ago . it also a film with poor production value like so many other italian film masquerade a american one . with the exception of keitel the cast be awful though johnny rotten performance be bizarre rather than terrible and the cinematography be static with the picture and sound quality give the impression that i be watch a fourth generation pirate copy ( i don ` t know if it down to a dodgy dvd or if it a very bad film print ) and bad of all be ennio morricone score . it impossible to belive the man who do the irritating intrusive incidental music for corrupt be the same one who do the music for those clint eastwood western . all of this be a pity because corrupt do have it moment . it by no mean the great psycho thriller ever devise but it do hold my interest and a always keitel put in a good performance a a violent nutcase cop . just a pity the rest of the movie didn ` t match up to his high standard .
