Problems with this movie (a 5/10 film)


1). Way too long. After a certain point, I had trouble keeping up with all the talking, name dropping, talking, name dropping, and yet more talking and more name talking. I started to lose interest

2). Treat Williams (who was quite handsome as a young man in this film) simply overacted. The scene with the prosecutors where he is worried about his wife and kid (it’s after Nick saved him) is textbook overacting. Not a good performance by Treat

Yeah the movie is really unfocused.
