Great Performance by Most of the Cast

Rating: 8/10 (24 June 2020)

Depp and Pacino are great, as would be expected. Most of the supporting cast is great as well but the one weak link is Anne Heche who plays Depp's wife. She comes off as extremely unsympathetic and grating. I'm not sure if the writer's intent was for us to sympathize with her for her husband being away on an undercover assignment but her performance only makes me feel sorry for Depp that he married her. Especially in the couples therapy scene when he tells the doctor her husband "leaves all the time for long periods of time". She knows full well why he's gone but makes it out that he just abandons his family for periods of time. Without her scenes the movie is easily 9+ stars.
