LA Takedown was better.

Rating: 6/10 (12 September 2002)

At first glance I thought this would be a great movie. Upon reading the movie description, and the character's names I realized that I had seen this movie before. It was a made for TV move titled LA Takedown, directed by Michael Mann. I was very excited when I first saw that Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, and Val Kilmer were starring in the movie. Unfortunately, about an hour into the movie I was ready to fall asleep. I am usually upset when I see the scenes that were deleted from great movies when I watch them on DVD, but this movie was the opposite. It would have been much better had they cut the movie down to 90 to 120 minutes. If you have the opportunity, watch LA Takedown and you will understand when you see the difference.
