awful awful awful this film really be a stinker and and i be quite astonish at the number of good comment it receive on here . what on earth al pacino be think of get involve in something this dire be quite beyond me perhaps money and but damage to reputation alone i would have think to be adequate reason to steer well away . the script be strew with clichés which manage to bring out the bad in everyone . the actress who play his sidekick for the 3rd quarter of the film look completely lose and struggle vainly to add some meaning to her line and with the long and poorly compose two shot only prolong the agony . character development be thin at best and the fast pace attempt at storytelling only lead to one farce after another and make the whole thing completely laughable . my advice avoid at all cost . whoever put money into this turkey deserve to lose it .
