Contemporary horror film for the new millenium.

Rating: 9/10 (26 July 1999)

Its a drama about beautiful women, money, power and having no guilt. Al Pacino plays a devil in a world of seduction. The nudity in the film surprised me but it is essential for the power-packed film to take effect.
Extreme gut-wrenching violence also comes to mind when watching the film. The film is rated 18+ for a reason. The plot is simple. A young attorney with a perfect record of 64-0 gets hired at a large New York law firm. He is overcome by the astonishing wealth of the new environment, where everything seems perfect.
Until he meets Milton (Pacino), he leads Lomax (Reeves) into a world of temptation. Things start to fall apart for Lomax from then on. The final half-hour of the film is the most gripping piece of film ever released. Certainly not a movie for the weak of heart. But otherwise, its a new sort of Horror film leading us into the 21st century.
