i be usually a big fan of pacino ( scarface and serpico and devil advocate ) but since scent of a woman he pretty much play the same role and shout a lot . this movie have no endear character to warm to . brandon play by bongo mcconnahey be the least likable of the bunch . he nowhere even approach a real human be . pacino be hopelessly unlikeable and my goodness how old be renee russo . the only high light of this wretched mess be the hot hooker with the perfect lipstick and she have like 10 line total . even the usually reliable jeremy piven be utterly unlikeable . note to writer of movie and they do not usually work unless one of the main character be at least a bit likable ( noteable exception scarface ) . a the movie close and old brandon be at the airport my only thought be and please let a plane crash into the airport and kill brandon .
