Best movie of its year

Rating: 10/10 (29 September 2001)

Fantastic film . First time i saw it i was bored but the second time i was riveted by its purposely slow pacing and brooding atmosphere . Russel Crowe is magnificent as the shy , introverted Jeffrey Wigand , a man who dares to blow the whistle on one of america's most powerful companies . Al Pacino .. what can i say about this actor . He's the big screen's most intense actor and while other actors of his generation have become parodies of themselves he is still giving classics like this one . Cheers .
