This could have been a really great movie. Unfortunately quite a lot of the writing is sub par.
But it gets worse.
Let me first talk about the good parts:
Michael Keaton and Al Pacino are superb. They transcend the cheesy poor written dialog.
Unfortunately this is a relatively low budget movie so those two paydays must have eaten up the budget.
As a result, the ancillary characters truly suck. They are horrible actors that bring the movie way down. It's sad that equity is doing this to movies today.
The detectives and the others are HORRIBLE actors who shoudl never work again. It's really sad to see a really good actor and a great actor in this shamble of a film.
