Product: The Insider [VHS] (1999)
Rating: 3.0
Biased but enjoyable
The Insider is entertaining and boasts a great Pacino performance but suffers from overlenghth and a bias. The story is very interesting, but I find it hard to believe some of the actions credited to the allegedly evil tobacco companies. Another lowpoint is the soundtrack (irritating and distracting), and the portrayal of Wigand's wife. I am sick of how poor movies portray women. Still, the movie was somewhat suspenseful and interesting and had good performances.
