I have known of this films existence for many years and yet somehow - despite being a big Al Pacino fan - I never fancied watching it. Well bored and having drained Netflix nearly dry - I decided to watch it today. I was pleasantly surprised - it wasn't at all what I expected - whilst not breaking new ground it was eminently watchable and enjoyable. Al Pacino can sometimes go over the top in some roles - but not in this one - I found him believable. My favourite scene was the tango scene - Al seems to enjoy dancing - he does so in many of his films and he has a nice sense of rhythm and timing. Recommended if you haven't seen it yet.
