Pacino offers another stellar performance in this generally captivating political suspense story - starts off a bit slow but then the script really begins to gel a third through the film, leading to a terrific Greek tragedy imbued climax. If you generally like movies underscoring power struggles, under the table mischief, and on-location NYC film shooting, you can't go wrong giving this film a try - generally it never really struck a chord with most big shot critics but that doesn't mean it doesnt have its appeal - especially for genre lovers.
