Product: The Insider [VHS] (1999)
Rating: 5.0
GREAT docudrama
I had come to expect good things from Michael Mann after seeing "Heat" and "Collatoral", and had heard that "The Insider" was also worth watching. I heard right as it is now my favorite film from Mann, the story is based on fact about one man who dared to go against the tobacoo company and lost everything because of it. One of the films many strengths are the superb performances by Crowe and Pacino(Duh), they seem as though they could be the actual people who went through the ordeals of all this. Half docudrama half psychological thriller this is a fantastic film not to be missed! My rating 9.5/10.
