Interesting movie that should have been longer

Rating: 8/10 (10 June 1999)

What I remember most from this film (well, I saw it just yesterday, but...) is the superb performance from Al Pacino as Lefty. And Johnny Depp was also great.
The film itself is a very interesting and well-made "gangster" movie, based upon a true story. It is engrossing and I wanted it to be perhaps a half hour longer -- it had a storyline that was so interesting that it could easily have been longer without me getting bored. Usually, I think the movies should be a half hour shorter. So, really good and well-made film by director Mike Newell.
