yet another dvd i pick up at the local supermarket while search through the bargain bin . it look interesting and so i decide to invest 99 penny and settle for 171 minute of crime drama and divide into two part ( uk version ) . well and what there to say the first part wasn not overly excite to watch represent the act wasn not that good and the actor appear pale in their appearance and performance and and i do expect a bit more true crime excitement . it not actually bad or anything just it not really good either . there be and however and a few highlight that amuse me in this one represent first of all peter boyle a sgt . joe van nort he have a really good screen presence and simply bring something to this film or any film and for that matter . then there the fact that this be a movie from a time long forget a time when smoke cigarette on screen be accept and normal and when the pc brigade wasn not around and you could light up whenever and wherever you want these guy go through pack after pack in the car and in the office ( god forbid . ) and and boyle even light up while his colleague be have lunch right next to him . the other thing that get me be something you could well call a run joke quite a few time will you see the word 6 month later on the screen i know that this be probably mean in relation to the real case and and to make thing authentic and but the viewer kind of expect these word every time a police building fill the screen while the camera doesn not move and his expectation would not be disappoint . the second part of the dvd pick up a little bit and but it still do not draw me into it as much a i wish it have peter coyote just appear that little bit too obvious and over the top in his role of the manipulating killer and and the whole connection between him and jay smith ( robert loggia ) never really get clear to me yes and they be work together and but why do loggia only have a few screen minute if he so essential to the plot . nevermind cindy pickett be definitely good in this one and and i would even say she be the best of all the cast as far a on screen performance be concern ( with boyle come a very close second ) . over all and i be a bit disappointed with this one and but i do not regret spend 99p on it if youre ever at the dentist and have to wait for 171 minute and pop this one into your portable dvd player or laptop and enjoy a very average true crime drama it would not be as bad a have your teeth pull out and i promise .
