Great acting by Al Pacino

Rating: 9/10 (29 October 2002)

A homosexual man wants money for his lover to have a sex change operation - the film shows his attempt to rob a bank and the hostage situation that follows.
If I had known in advance what the film is about I would certainly never have watched it, which would have been a great pity. It is a most engrossing film with an absolutely great, very high-energy performance from Al Pacino.

It's been a long time since I saw the film but I cant imagine it getting dated. The power of the acting would keep it fresh.
