average crime drama movie that could have be a classic if the end be not as idiotic a present here . great cast with good all around production . there most probably be a federal censorship issue here which force the producer to create the idiotic hollywood end . see it if only you be a big crime drama movie fan who understand movie production politics . if not and you may regret the time you spend watch this almost great but ruined movie . fan of the lead actor will enjoy this one as well .
