One of the best movies about the necessity and difficulty of "doing the right thing". Everyone in this cast is doing career best work and Mann orchestrates this thing so well.
-
Between 3.5 and 4 stars. A good piece on investigative journalism, though it dragged in a few places and was probably overlong. Good performances by the whole cast; Pacino's performance was simply gripping.
