Just a few spoilers

Rating: 6/10 (29 January 2007)

Yes! This is a very good movie to see and is well acted by everyone involved. But when you think about the movie afterward it does have a bunch of holes. So I was surprised by it's very high rating. I would suppose none of the holes bothered the other movie patrons. I would not have it rate any higher than 7.5 as far as a total movie goes. If you see this then make sure you see HEAT which is even better in my opinion.
These are the holes -Semi-Spoilers 1. Why would a police investigator pick up a cigarette rather than his gun when he knows he's being approached by thugs??? 2. What happened to the baby??? Who's was it??? 3. Why didn't DiCaprio call Wahlberg direct but he can leave a note for his Therapist that has the info to get in touch with Wahlberg after the fact??Big Question??? 4. Why would the Therapist (which had very little character development) sleep with Dicaprio so quick (there was no motivation and makes her look cheap) and how did he know where she always lived anyway is a bigger question? 5. Why didn't DiCaprio just turn in state evidence directly to a news team and blow the case wide open. He didn't have to try and capture the top guy on the top of a building. He could've called Wahlberg who he knows he can trust since he was hired by him in the first place? 6. Why didn't they have the secondary insider in the FBI earlier in the movie?... It was a throw in to shock you but really the movie didn't need to have that cheap shot.
There are a few more holes but this at least lets you know that it's not a perfect movie.... just perfect acting and the movie does pull you in from the start.
