serious real , not for light mood , well acted

Rating: 8/10 (22 March 2015)

this is of 1995 and yet scenes are so realistic . it seems they really killed a person to show believable autopsy . Morgan freeman as about to retire detective plays the part very well while brad Pitt is young guy who partners him in last case . gwyneth paltrow looks charming . story is depressing . notice how the credits roll at ending , then you will know the idea of director . there is a chase scene in which cop is alert & determined , committed to his duty , uncaring of his scars , yet evil sneaks up on him . the picture of life painted is quite bleak . the limitations of law rule book are shown . the apathy of human beings to each other makes situation grim and hopeless for viewer .
